Hot weather daydreams

I want to lie in a bathtub filled with ice-water, ice-cubes floating around me like soap bubbles. I want to dive into the ocean and swim for what seems an eternity. Hair waving around me, sounds muffled, sunlight softly filtered playing on my face. The feeling that I can hold my breath for hours at a time. To just stay in this calm water world, cool water caressing my skin, eyes wide, big smile and feeling so alive.

Or being in the middle of a storm, wind flagging me, whipping around me in cold, angry gusts, energizing me. And then that first little drop exploding on my face. Followed by many others hailing down on me, faster and faster, soaking me to the skin, to the bone. And me laughing, running, feeling silly and exuberant.

Or just lying on the beach, hot and sticky, with a beautiful man next to me, making my ears roar and sweat trickling down, sweet and salty. Summer is good, don’t wake me up and burst my bubble...
