Feel The Heat at Poetry Jam

I feel the heat
Bone deep and soul wide
I dive into your coolness
Open-eyed
Welcoming the relief
Surfacing
I feel the heat

Join the creative fun at Poetry Jam

I can almost feel the searing sun on my head!
Is that pond yours or is it near where you live?

No relief when the pool or pond are bath water temperatures.

What a wonderful place to refresh and renew! Love your poem.

I feel the heat,
it makes me crazy.
I feel the heat,
it makes me lazy.
I feel the heat
outside in the yard.
I feel the heat
and i look like LARD

Nice turn of phrase, Gail.

Very well done, but you know sometimes the water is all heat too. Not often, but sometimes.

Have a terrific day. ☺
