A handful of summer

It’s green … green … green for weeks. Then, overnight, in a twisting, climbing wall of green, there glows a little orange. Soon to be red. Silas found the first ones, of course. He’s best at enjoying the fleeting wonders of summer. He’s the firefly catcher, the berry picker, the tomato seeker. He knows how to hold summer in his hands.
