Summer...

Summer in Nashville

mm its green, like bright green, everywhere, 

but its so hot that its kind of hazy. 

like you can see the sunshine raze 

and feel the music floating threw

a sugary citrus air. 

mm its humid; hot and sticky, but i kinda like it

There are lots of Bugs.

I saw my first Lightning Bug the other night. 

Fireflys

it wasn't quite dark,

a little after dusk, 

just a little pink resonating in the darkening blue sky.

a flicker and it was gone.

 i gasp.

 i couldn't help it. 

i was in awe, wonder. 

i felt five again.

innocent. grinning. alive. 

another flicker. Gasp.

A glimmer of hope, 

a beckoning of a free spirit,

quietly awaiting the night. . .

Cicadas invaded this summer, They are these flying grass hoppery thing. Kind of like June bugs( for those Washington Folk)

I actually really ended up liking them...

they sing to you all day 

and they only come out every 13 years to mate and then they die...How Romantic

This is how this summer makes me feel:

Humidity is a term for the amount of water vapor in air, and can refer to any one of several measurements of humidity.

A cicada ( /sɪˈkeɪdə/ or /sɪˈkɑːdə/) is an insect of the order Hemiptera, suborderAuchenorrhyncha, in the superfamily Cicadoidea, with large eyes wide apart on the head and usually transparent, well-veined wings. There are about 2,500 species of cicada around the world, and many remain unclassified. Cicadas live in temperate to tropical climates where they are among the most widely recognized of all insects, mainly due to their large size and unique sound. Cicadas are often colloquially calledlocusts,^[1] although they are unrelated to true locusts, which are a kind of grasshopper. Cicadas are related to leafhoppers and spittlebugs.

Firefly: Lampyridae is a family of insects in the beetle order Coleoptera. They are winged beetles, and commonly called fireflies or lightning bugs for their conspicuouscrepuscular use of bioluminescence to attract mates or prey. Fireflies produce a "cold light", with no infrared or ultraviolet frequencies. This chemically-produced light from the lower abdomen may be yellow, green, or pale-red, with wavelengths from 510 to 670 nanometers.
