Summer in Northern California...It's getting hot around here!
Sizzling heat permeates stale air
Gasp for breath, exhale real slow
Fiery flesh bakes outside in
Cool clean water, beckons my soul...

We all know the feelings express in this short expressive poem. Good one for hot weather. This is the kind of weather we're suppose to have today here in Ohio.
Zenith...lol...it be nasty hot down here in SoCal also...and of course, we have the damned fires beginning already...one of the down sides to CA weather...there is no lead in to seasonal changes...one day, it be chilly, the next, blazing.
Excellent imagery here...composition is good, considering the subject, it is like a bright, hot coal in a camp fire.
