Summer, Even the Word

Summer, even the word is glorious
                       
It lathers the tongue
like oil
glistening on sun toned skin

Summer, just the thought is radiant

White hot images of pink sand
are cooled 
only by mist of sea foam salt

Summer, a sensual buffet of delights

Beach breeze tinted with coconut
carries the
joyous chatter of laughter and frolic
 
Summer is glorious
