Summer time has arrived.

It’s another very long hot day
The temperature’s in the 90’s
Sun rays are beating down on us

 

And burning our sensitive skin
Nature has brought us Summer
Outside it is hot and muggy
Thunder is rumbling in the distance
Humidity is rising every moment
Every hour that passes by
Rising temperatures abound

 

Very soon we are hoping that
Evening will bring us relief
Right now it’s hot and steamy
Yearning or a cooling break

 

Longing to relax on my porch
Outside after darkness arrives
Nighttime bring cooler temps
Great relief we’ll finally enjoy

 

Heat is causing us to sweat
Out in this sweltering weather
Tempted to jump into a lake

 

Dive beneath the cool water
Another very long hot day
Yearning for cooler weather

    that was a beautiful and hot poem. i liked the line “dive beneath the cool water” and think that’s a very refreshing and cold idea. i liked it!

    we always have a tendency to crave for that what we don;t have . winter minus 30 ,
    and now summer plus 40 ,
    and then the rains ,

    and
    GLOBAL WARMING

    and so on life goes on

    Lovely poem Darla. What I wouldn’t give for a bit of your warm weather. It’s cold wet and miserable here.
