Summer is here

Rays of sunrise greet my face

Shoes stepping in dewy grass blades

Each step stirring up waves of heat that swarm and lick my skin

Smell of wet earth and sugary green plants

Squawking grackles and the metal cacophony of the neighbor’s AC

Face melting from sunbeams and humidity

Summer is here

A sunflower bathed in sunlight has a bee in its center.
(2020) Sunflower with bee.
