Chapter 0.8 August
1st of August 2023
As we open chapter eight, summertime projects emerge in full swing.
Summertime has arrived, and holiday mode is on, The out-of-office message gleams. Windows wide open, inviting the breeze to explore, Welcoming freedom, adventure, and so much more.
Weather-dependent plans, uncertain yet bright, A trail through lush fields, with wheat swaying light. Patiently waiting for the sun to bestow, Bees buzzing in flowerbeds, life's rhythm in flow.
Ripe fruits descend gracefully, falling to the ground, Greedy critters below, a banquet they've found. Pimms pours tall, refreshing and sweet, Bank holidays with friends, feasting in the heat.
Clouds start to gather, the air becomes thick, Hot, humid, and heavy, the weather takes its pick. Then the heavens open, a grand spectacle unfolds, Dash outside, embrace the storm, break the mold.
As light dims gently, soak up the sun, Autumn approaches, the journey's just begun. In Leo season, be brave, let courage unfurl, Throw your head back, natures embrace, roar and whirl. Exciting August Ahead: Wandering Willa Wexby and More!
