If you have ever been to the Småland forest in June on an early Sunday morning, you will immediately remember what this forest is like. You will hear how the cuckoo crows, and how the blackbirds trill, as if playing a flute.

You walk and inhale the resinous smell of spruce and pine trees, admire the white strawberry flowers in the meadows. This is how Emil walked through the forest.

(Haruki Murakami)
I thought that in the summer the collective consciousness is strongest. We all remember the tune of the ice cream man's song, we all know how the sun-hot metal of a children's slide burns our skin. We've all laid on our backs with our eyes closed, feeling our eyelids pulsate and hoping that this day would be a little longer than the previous one, when in fact it's just the opposite.
(Jodi Picoult)
On a summer afternoon, everything seems to fall asleep in a stuffy haze, but as soon as a light breeze blows in, the green oak groves begin to speak, preening themselves, the quiet river backwater ripples, and a tree somewhere creaks in the falsetto of an old man. And again - only the sleepy buzzing of bees and clouds boiling with foam float in an endless line. The heat of the day reigns in the pine forest. The white-dried moss crunches under your feet, the sand on the hillocks burns your soles, and it’s nice by the river! Coolness blows from the tight river streams, bordered by sedges and yellow dots of water lilies. The river, like a life-giving artery, is filled with freshness and movement.
(Alexander Tovarev)
Summer is the furnace in which God burns the magnificent colors of autumn.
(Heinrich Bell)
It was a beautiful July day, one of those days that only happen when the weather has settled for a long time. From early morning the sky is clear; The morning dawn does not burn with fire: it spreads with a gentle blush. The sun - not fiery, not hot, as during a sultry drought, not dull purple, as before a storm, but bright and welcomingly radiant - floats up peacefully under a narrow and long cloud, shines freshly and sinks into its purple fog. The upper, thin edge of the stretched cloud will sparkle with snakes; their shine is like the shine of forged silver... But then the playing rays poured out again, and the mighty luminary rose merrily and majestic, as if taking off. Around noon there usually appear many round high clouds, golden-gray, with delicate white edges. Like islands scattered along an endlessly overflowing river, flowing around them with deeply transparent branches of even blue, they hardly move from their place; further, towards the horizon, they move, crowd together, the blue between them is no longer visible; but they themselves are as azure as the sky: they are all thoroughly imbued with light and warmth. The color of the sky, light, pale lilac, does not change throughout the day and is the same all around; It doesn’t get dark anywhere, the thunderstorm doesn’t thicken; unless here and there bluish stripes stretch from top to bottom: then barely noticeable rain is falling. By evening these clouds disappear; the last of them, blackish and vague, like smoke, lie in pink clouds opposite the setting sun; at the place where it set as calmly as it calmly rose into the sky, a scarlet glow stands for a short time over the darkened earth, and, quietly blinking, like a carefully carried candle, the evening star glows on it. On days like these, the colors are all softened; light, but not bright; everything bears the stamp of some touching meekness. On such days, the heat is sometimes very strong, sometimes even “soaring” along the slopes of the fields; but the wind disperses, pushes apart the accumulated heat, and the vortex-gyres - an undoubted sign of constant weather - walk in tall white pillars along the roads through the arable land. The dry and clean air smells of wormwood, compressed rye, and buckwheat; even an hour before night you do not feel damp. The farmer wishes for similar weather for harvesting grain...
