Green surrounds me
flowers all in bloom
the sun is shining brightly
making shadows in my room

The buzz of all the insects
is what is filling my ears
wondering what to read next
while seconds feel like years

Peaches hang in trees
they fall softly on the ground
wind is just a breeze
and silence is the sound

So I sit here
reading calmly
tonight is when I’ll cheer
it’s the sun of which I’m feeding
while the sky is blue and clear

 

I wrote this after watching ‘call me by your name’, trying to imagine how one must feel, spending a summer in Crema, the beautiful town where the film was, mostly, shot.
