What a joyous phrase! I'll have to remember this next time I see a cloudy sky with even just a sliver (or next time I'm feeling pessimistic, in general). Thank you for sharing your Oma's words with us!
The ways we come to view our homes as distinct entities, friends...! I was lucky enough to grow up in the house that my parents built and still live in to this day, so I'm lucky, too, that I can always return to the memories of my childhood. I imagine it's incredibly difficult to have to say goodbye to the place you were raised in. I hope writing this piece was cathartic, at least, and that it helps you hold on to some of your recollections.
The second and last stanzas felt like a punch; I understand this feeling so well. You are not alone in this feeling. If you need to chat about anything, feel free to message me! There is still time. :)
This is incredible, I've been keeping my eyes on the trees for days now but have only seen the most minimal color transitioning! Wherever this is, it must be one of the first ones around you to turn -- I think you're lucky to have come upon it!

Are these old Burlington Free Presses? I recognize the Community Journalism Project logo!
This piece is so simple, but reflects the seasons so well! You should find a title for it!

Such an incredible idea! It reminds me of the hand-held sparklers you run with at night on holiday. So beautiful!

Great slant rhyme! I feel you, I had so many days like that at school. Hang in there!
