- Ice Cube - Cooling Effect -

A beautiful and warm sunny day She is relaxing in her hammock In her hand a glass of lemonade with ice cubes Takes up an ice cube holding it up against the sun The sun shines through so beautifully Cold drops dripping between her breast Keeps the ice cube against the sun until it disappears Around her belly button a small cooling pond Looking up at the sun, smiling and thinking there are still five months to King Winter will come Oh how life is lovely in the sunshine and her hammock 17.07.2013 A-L Andresen :)

Beautiful. I had never thought of Norway being hot enough to enjoy dripping ice. Your descriptions really bring us to that moment. Beautiful.

Hi Anne Lise - Yes, "stopping to smell the roses" with an ice cube. Some of the most precious moments in life are those we share with nature. So good of you to share your moment with us. As always, love the way you observe life. - Gail

If an ice cube melted on my chest, I'd scream like a girl. Just sayin'. This was a wonderfully serene piece. And say NO to King Winter! =D

Ahhhhhh.....lovely! Ice cubes do the trick, Annie Lise. What a pleasurable way to cool off! :) Lovely write. Me? I like to cool off by pointing the nozzle of the water hose straight up into the sky and catching the downpour with upturned face. I get carried away sometimes and get drenched. This summer....I haven't done much of that! :( Lovely piece!
