Lazy Summer Days

by Melanie A Bennett

Bare feet
Hot pavement
The feel of grass between your toes
Smells of chlorine in your hair
Tastes of juicy watermelon...
And fresh sweet corn
Barbeques and campfires...
Burning charcoal...Roasting marshmallows
Mmmm...sticky sweetness
Sit back
Relax
Enjoy the lazy days of Summer

Author's Note: This hot weather we've been having lately has inspired me to write a very summery poem. Enjoy!! :)

If you changed this to a two-word each line form I think it would be another interesting twist: Bare feet
Hot pavement
Grass toes
Chlorine hair
Watermelon taste
Sweet corn
Barbeques and campfires
Burning charcoal
Roasting marshmallows
Sticky sweetness
Enjoy lazy
Summer perfection
Just a thought!
