Stuck in the heat of a summer day <br />In the middle of a long summer walk <br />Heated by a golden sunshine ray <br /> <br />We will go there if we may <br />To the cool pool at the end of the block <br />Stuck in the heat of a summer day <br /> <br />Families host picnics down by the bay <br />We don't wear one shoe or sock <br />Heated by a golden sunshine ray <br /> <br />On blankets and grass we will lay <br />Sipping lemonade-the cups are on that rock- <br />Stuck in the heat of a summer day <br /> <br />Wishing we were on a private cay <br />Hearing waves and birds that mock <br />Heated by a golden sunshine ray <br /> <br />We want candy, we repeatedly say <br />But the 'good stuff' is under key and lock <br />Stuck in the heat of a summer day <br />Heated by a golden sunshine ray<br /><br />Leah Stout<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-summer-day-5/
