The Sweltering Heat
I am walking down the street in the sweltering heat, water is dripping from my face and perspiration is oozing out of my skin and flooding the dry places, the reservoir has run dry and there is no sign of rain clouds in the pregnant skies, the fires are running wild and the furnest is...

Premium Member Sweltering Hot
The temperature soars; it's so sweltering hot relief is sorely sought; for sweat doesn't drip; it pours, under a sun-baked sky, in the heat Summer wrought. The beach is bittersweet, where water versus sand; and the sun burns the tanned wading in their bare feet; trying to beat the heat, for swimming has been banned. August in the city is bereft of pity....

Real Happiness
REAL HAPPINESS Amazed to see ill-clad kids playing in sweltering heat Raised by carefree , breezy nature, jovial atmosphere altogether Played with zeal , indifferent of caste and creed Unfazed by the prickly, sultry weather. Enthralled by the boisterous energy ,echoing in towers Swayed by the squad and drenched in unusual liveliness Realised, joy lies within...

Premium Member ''The Sweltering Night Life--''
The sweltering night life has a certain, darkly, sensual appeal,--a sexuality about it that draws the wildlife out. It is a world of darkness, a place and time of shadow and mystery when strangers fornicate. During the night, the stars come out; the moon-glow is bright; and eager libidos are on the prowl. While all around, the nocturnal rhythms increase. When the darkness...

Premium Member Hot, Sweet, Sweltering, July
Hot, sweet, sweltering July When all you can hear are distant hummings Of inside fans and flies incessant drumming Fans rattling inside, flies outside amongst the grasses. Time seems to stand so very still. Just the act of breathing Leaves some beaded sweated tears Some tiny drops of condensation Along the hollows of your breasts And the hollows of your mind's years. There is no...
