Summer's Day

Clear blue sky, haze, baked cracked red ground

Puffs of dust swirl, leaves roll down the road

Creaking signs, stretch of iron in the heat

Swish, the fan moves the still hot air, flies buzz

Water slides down the fridge door, motor hums

Sigh, wind comes, behind clouds drift, dark grey

Sweat trickles down, more clouds come, wind moans

Signs bang, joints of iron creak, dust fills air

Still, dense, soup, metallic nose, crack of light

Crash, puff of dust, spots on ground, sweet smell

Thousands of hob nail boots crash upon rooftops

Mute becomes voice, water crashing down

Mud, rivers along the ground, puddles, leaves swimming

Still, quiet, cool air, birds waken, cacophony

Frogs sing, thick air, sweat runs, mosquitoes call

Passes by another summer’s day
