Good Ole Summer Day

Feet propped up,
creaky chair,
worn blue jeans,
sweat dripping off my nose, 
flick of a lighter,
long drag,
let it out, 
lipstick stained cigarettes,
and a good ole summer day.

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist,and I’d love to discuss the possibility of bringing this poem to life if you're ever interested.
