Sizzling Summer

summer sun sizzles
sans sunshade shelter
sunburn scalds
she sprints scorched sand to shore

Beef, chorizo, hot dog, eggs
crushing the limp bun—

Sizzling hot






Even a softer touch makes me sizzle,
and yearnings fume with a warm embrace,
Burning soul that can tranquillise no drizzle,
Flaming passion for an eternal holy grace,
Will never evanesce, not even a trace !!

Here we are again and we overeat!

We’re like children of kings in our own fancy seat.

Talking dirty things in front of our table,

Cherish those moments and make a coolest fable.

 

We walked in with grace in a crowd of mystery.

Seeing bunch of friends from our...

Sizzling tree woman
stomping through the forest
putting roots down hard
shaking up the elms and the oaks

Sizzling tree woman
making your presence felt
stirring up the forest
frightening the deer

Do you have a sister?
I know a brazen mulberry who needs taming....
