Tips for late summer days 🌌
visiting an observatory, watching celestial objects through a telescope
organizing evening picnics in a rose garden
visiting a renown fair nearby
packing sandwiches and homemade lemonades for road trips with friends
painting outside in the plein air
planning a one day trip to a spa town
taking advantage of the last warm nights by stargazing in the fields
reflecting about the past summer months
shopping, strolling along the boulevard or visiting the mall
preparing for the back to school season and a fresh new start

Blackberry-Picking
We hoarded the fresh berries in the byre. But when the bath was filled we found a fur, A rat-grey fungus, glutting on our cache. The juice was stinking too. Once off the bush The fruit fermented, the sweet flesh would turn sour. I always felt like crying. It wasn't fair That all the lovely canfuls smelt of rot. Each year I hoped they'd keep, knew they would not.

A poem by Marie Howe
Low Tide, Late August
That last summer when everything was almost always terrible
we waded into the bay one late afternoon as the tide had almost finished
pulling all the way out
and sat down in the waist-deep water,
I floating on his lap facing him, my legs floating around him,
and we quietly coupled,
and stayed, loosely joined like that, not moving,
but being moved by the softly sucking and lapping water,
as the pulling out reached its limit and the tide began to flow slowly back again.
Some children ran after each other, squealing in the shallows, near but not too near.
I rested my chin on his shoulder looking toward the shore.
As he must have been looking over my shoulder, to where the water deepened
and the small boats tugged on their anchors.
