Breezin’ Through Summer Ridin’ a Scooter

Summer Scooters

I got my scooter, got my helmet on
I’m gonna ride it until the day is gone

Scooter by Claudia Robin Gunn with Dean Jones

Scooters.
A child’s twinkle.
A companion.
A mode of transportation.

Scooters.
To a child, it’s a passport of sorts.
A rite of passage.
A taste of freedom.

Scooters.
Helmet on.
Children playing.
Scraped knees.

Scooters.
Side by side.
Mom on rollerblades.
Fun on a summer day.

Scooters.
Humming.
Zig-zagging.
The sound of kerplunk, kerplunk,
over the jagged sidewalks.

Scooters.
They teach us to play.
Play outside.
Play with your kids.
Play in the day.
Into the night.

The opening scene plays.
Anne Hathaway slides down a pole, grabs her lunch,
and scooters to high school.

Nadia Crane, Wine & Faith – 19 Days in Napa

This summer,

May you take the time to play outside like you did when you were a kid. May you close your eyes and imagine the wind and smile on your face as you feel that whoosh of being on a scooter.
