July, Bottled in Words

Sun-warm skin. Melting sorbets. Firefly flickers at twilight. The hum of fans, the fizz of cola, the scratch of journals filled at midnight. Sand clinging to ankles, half-read books, and the heavy, golden stillness before a summer storm. These are the quiet echoes of July, word-soaked and wandering

blurred, sun-drenched city street in the afternoon, hazy, golden heat waves, slightly overexposed
Sultry: heat that clings like a whispered secret
sleepy dog lying under a shade in a peak summer heat, with glaring sunlight outside the window
Canicular: those dog days when even time melts
street soaked in rain, a person walking with an umbrella through puddles
Monsoon: rains that turns streets into stories
a twilight forest with glowing fireflies, soft blur of golden dots against deep blue
Firefly: tiny stars that blink and disappear
a girl lying on a bed with a book sunlight filtering through a window
Languor: a hush that wraps the warm day
endless road leading into the horizon clicked from a car window
Wanderlust: an ache to chase any open road
string lights over a garden table, hands holding sparklers, a picnic with people laughing
Fête: a night strung with lights and laughter
a woman in red sitting in a window lost in thought
Reverie: a quiet drift into sunlit thoughts
purple wildflowers glowing in golden light with a girl in soft focus
Heliotrope: a summer hue that follows the sun
girl twirling barefoot in a sunlit meadow
Juvenescent: barefoot joy that feels like rebirth

That was July in Wordista. August’s soul rolls in next. Stay close.

June Feels Like…

Dripping sunlight, soft pages, stillness between sentences, and a few words that match the mood.

Words carry seasons. June carries these. Come back next month for a new feeling.

Meet the Mind (& Heart) Behind Wordista!

Once upon a time, there was a little girl who saw magic in words. She saved every ticket stub, scribbled on every page, and loved piecing together phrases that captured life’s little moments. That girl grew up, but the magic of words stuck around—always chiming in when life got messy. Before she knew it, she had a treasure trove of them! And now here she is—unfolding Wordista, the little online nook to share those treasures with you, one line at a time. Curious for more? Wander over here to meet Anjali, your resident Wordista.
