Summer is here,
I can feel it beneath my skin,
the toes are wiggling-
and my cheeks giggle-
like water-
sweat pours through,
seeping below-
bringing some relief,
my eyes contract,
just enough,
room for the light-
to follow,
trees are no longer alone-
beneath them-
rest creatures,
basking in the shade,
birds sit atop buildings,
pointing their beaks northward,
scouting for something-
maybe a relief?
But all I can tell,
is that summer is here,
it will stay,
for another year.
