Premium Member A Florida July Day
White
sand beach,
alive with 
laughter, children's
squeals, grown-up shouts, the
swoosh, swoosh of waves against
the shore, a distant rumble
of thunder - symphonic sounds of
summer on a sweltering July
day in the Sunshine State of Florida....

Our Sunshine State
Rainforest, sparkling white sand
And friendly country towns
Man eating crocodiles
Outback and Darling Downs
The awe inspiring Barrier Reef
And tropic Moonlight nights
Bushland animals and solitude
The heat the earth ignites
Rich brown earth and floodlit plain
Earth’s bounty here we sow
Sugar cane, Wattle and Blue gums
Paradise untamed aglow...

Premium Member Eight Months of Heat
Two months past solstice
Subtropical climate sears
Just open the door

Step into oven
Midday sun chars skin and lawns
Sweat flows so freely

Water use rises
AC gives welcome relief
Scalding sand on beach

Take frequent showers
Florida lifestyle envied
Northerners don’t know

Blazing heat last months
Visits to the Sunshine State
Best planned in winter
