As summer winds to an end in the Northern Hemisphere, our contributors reflect on the season.

“The Porch” by Christine Kelley shares a blurry memory of babyhood.
“Abundance” by David Sapp captures one perfect summer moment.
“Susquehanna” by Christine Kelley recalls a hot day at the river’s edge with blunt detail.

She lives with her husband and son in the Philadelphia area and takes far too many photos of her handsome, creative son, nicknamed Kung Fu Panda.
