Summer is <br />nagging mozzies <br />sticky armpits <br />windows wide open <br />warm nights under twinkling stars <br /> <br />Summer is <br />hot north winds <br />sirens blaring <br />tree ferns wearing <br />their shriveled fronds like brown tutus <br /> <br />Summer is <br />idle afternoons <br />making love <br />on the old couch <br />watching the mid-day movie. <br /> <br />Summer is <br /> <br />(sigh) <br /> <br />far, far away.<br /><br />Alison Cassidy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dreaming-of-summer-2/
