Sunburn

SUNBURN Sunkisses strike leaving red lipstick marks, Ubiquitous blush from head to toe. Nabalm bites raw like tiger sharks, Blazing with emotional undertow. Umbrellas arrive with rainbow arcs, Reinforcement relief with balm and bows. Naproxen, to bed, air conditioning works! Kim Rodrigues (c) 2016

I have enjoyed your take on sunburn, Kim! When young we used to really get sunburnt, and how we suffered!! Nowadays I am very careful and am fussy on high factor creams. Regards // paul
