Sultry Summer

Heating begins with the rising of the sun Greeting the tips of the tallest trees Beating down to dry laundry on the line Meeting high temps with climbing degrees Wonder of your day at the beach Under the protection of suntan lotion Blunder not learning of the weather approaching Thunder on its way coming in off the ocean
