Summer

Day by day the heat persists,
Don't know how I can exist.
Every day the blazing sun,
Awful lot of damage done.

Fall asleep no matter where,
From the hot and humid air.
Every day so close and fine,
For a refreshing swim I pine.

Dash right home and into shorts,
Give no thought to outdoor sports.
Grab a cooling drink and book,
Softly settle in a shady nook.

Seeking refuge in the shade,
In any deep woodland glade.
Enjoy a godsend of leafy trees,
And the balm of a brisk breeze.

Thinking and the writing wait,
Until another later date.
Toss and turn through the night,
Waking up feeling like a fright.

Hot I am and hot I'll be,
Until some remedy rain I see.
Summer's here and here it stays,
A summer sun and its golden rays.

Dedicated to Jane who I was fortunate to meet today 23/10/2021 (15.20 P.M).
It was a pleasure to meet you again at The Enchanted Poetry Bench and
for being so brave to venture along The Haunted Woodlands Path. 
For not many return.
Thank you visiting and for listening and this is your poem now,
to share with other like-minded good people. I hope you like it.
May God Bless and Keep you Jane and all the loved ones around you and 
enjoy life and all the good virtues it can happily bestow.
