Summer

Snow days are nice but I’d prefer school,
If only the summer kept us not so cool,
Surrounded by heat and covered in sweat,
Looking for any fan you could get,
So much heat that you can hardly breath,
Wishing that you were out on the sea,
The sun beating down with no surrender,
The sound of the ice being crushed in the blender,
A warm summer night where you can walk outside,
The heat all around so you cannot hide,
A cool glass of water quenching your thirst,
A dive in the ocean being completely submersed,
You finally feel warm inside and out,
Your eyes constantly searching for a liquid spout,
You feel content like you’re finally awake,
As you sit there quietly just starting to bake,
You’re filled with love and not a thing’s wrong,
You wish it had been like this all along,
A smell in the air that you just can’t deny,
The feeling that you know as being alive.
