Cool night air
I sit on my deck
Relief after the heat
Hot air late
afternoon
Keeps us inside
AC going full blast
Furry, panting dog
Lies over the vent
Blocking our air
Finding her relief
Dinner time comes
Too hot to eat
Frozen yogurt sounds
good
But barbeque is
best
Along with iced tea
Heat rolls off the
patio
We eat inside
tonight
And long for cooler
days
When we can enjoy
the outdoors
Without dripping
and dragging
And risking heat
stroke
We’ll check the
forecast
Then look towards
tomorrow
And I sit on my
deck
In the cool night
air
