Hot Wheels

?Sweltering on the leather 
front seat,
With sweat coming down 
my tanned legs.
Feeling like being cooked,
as helpless,sunnyside up,eggs!

Those silver shades on the front 
window, 
don’t do me any good.
As I sit here, soaking, in my
California neighborhood!

Rather be in the house with a 
cool glass of pink, fresh lemonade.
Oh, I forgot to mention, total
absence from any refreshing shade!
