S'mores Summer Day
Waves from the lake lapping onto the shores. Picking up sticks and twigs among the lilacs, pines, and oaks. Then bringing them towards the fire pit for the nights campfire. My older cousin gathering sticks that are slightly deeper in the woods, along with helping to set up a few logs. The adults talking among themselves, setting up a few tents, a few chuckles can be heard from a joke or story that had happened from the months prior. While a few go in and out of the cabin, getting everything set for the next few days.

Waters Abyss
By the waters edge, a young woman is seen sitting on the sandy shores. The moon light shinning down on her, and the waves lightly tapping onto her feet. As she sat there, her mind races in circles of the day that had past on by. Without paying any attention to her surroundings, she leans her body backwards to sprawl herself out in the sand. Though she felt her head bump against someone. She whispers a 'sorry' as she bends her body forward and looks towards where she thought the person would be, just to notice that no one was there. Getting onto her knees, she turns her body around, her eyes skimming around to see if she notices anything out of place.

Emerald Lights in the Sky
Lying in my bed each night and having troubles falling asleep, I look out my window. Listening to the crickets chirp and the fireflies blinking through the trees outside. The gentle rustling of the leaves being brushed over by the wind, and the fresh summer breeze drifting in. Filling my nostrils with its gentle scent. The as my eyes slowly close, and I feel the calm drifting over me, I begin my journey in my dreams.

The Red Eyed Bull
Feeling my feet pounding into the dirt, as my heart races and the pulsing is felt throughout my body. The trampling behind me, as hooves hit the dirt and picking up a trail of dust behind behind them. Not wanting to look back, to see those horrible scarlet eyes of the black bull. My feet keeping up at a pace and as I take to turn a corner, my body goes flying, and hits a wall.

Fae and Gardens
While weeding a garden, a gardener finds some exquisite marigolds that were a soft gold that turned into a fiery red. Admiring the flowers, she reaches out and gently caresses the flower's buds. Watching as the light mildew from the dawn glistened in the morning sun. Slowly taking her hand away, she began to weed again. Being careful to not accidentally pull any of the flowers and plants that she had planted.

Childhood Memories
Driving in the country side, with the windows down, and allowing the fresh air to pile into the vehicle. Birds flying in the air, and the trees rushing past. The trees opening up to reveal the open pastures and cattle munching on grass. Horses running the fields and nibbling at each others necks. The familiar scene brings a smile to the woman's face as her sister comments about the horses.
