Oh How I Love Summer

Warmth. The sunshine radiating on my caramel brown skin. The gentle breeze 
caressing my body so tenderly that I feel like I could soar. The sand penetrating the 
cracks of my pruned toes. 
Oh how I love summer! 

The way the salty waves roll, crashing against the shore with its rabid foam. The 
way the summer air seems to awaken the season of romance. The bright hues of 
the sun setting over the glistening waters of the Earth's swimming pool. The palm 
trees shading two lovers making memories, the sun dimming as if to give them 
privacy. 
Oh how I love summer!
