Sunburn Is No Fun

Slipping slowly across the sky,
Summer sun in hot sizzling bliss
Permits no hasty alibi,
Neither offers a gentle kiss,
While ample creams will justify
Protective lotions we dismiss,
So, lest we blister, we must care,
Protective shirts and sunscreen wear.

Michelle Faulkner Date: 5/28/2021 11:51:00 AM So clever, really like 'sizzline bliss' and 'neither offers a gentle kiss' - while I don't sunburn that easily, I should remember to wear sunblock - especially on my nose!
