Colors of Summer

The vivid colors of summer Come flashing down at me I can feel the summer sun Penetrating through my body As though it were trying to Possess my very soul. I lay on the softness of The moist green grass The smell of the freshly mowed lawn is intoxicating The sun gives the grass A glistening hue of color. As I read the words from The book of poetry in hand I feel beads of sweat dripping Down between my breast I see the large cypress tree. That makes me think I should move under it Before I melt into the grass I shield my eyes from the The brightness of the hot sun. Though I so much enjoy The vivid colors of summer.
