Looks Like Summer

Looks like summer outside
From the space in my head
The light through the curtains
Helps me get out of bed
It’s warm where I’m laying
But the promise of sun
Sees me throw back the covers
And put my clothes on
It’s a while since I’ve ventured
From my safe shielded home
I’ve been laid up for winter
Since she left me alone
But enough introspection
Let’s stop the cold nights
I will resume my journey
Go see summer’s sights
No matter the season
Be it fair, fall, or rain
I will see the summer
And feel better again
I’ve cast off my covers
Ready once more
To enter the fray
To walk out through my door
