Summer

Heat to warm the bones

Leaves to dapple too bright a light

Ice cold water to quench a thirst

And a cat that purrs in contentment on my lap.

 

Fires that roar through parched and drooping bush

Ants that steal the seed from out of furrows

Beer that cheers my husband's heart

Summer so full of joys and woes.

You brought the season right back on this chilly winter's day, and I love the cat line! I am not a big fan of summer, being allergic to sunlight, but your poem touched on some of the best things of summer and even made me long for those summer days.

Sleep State Interrupt by T. Weber

Behind the Gates: Behind the Gates: A 1990s Hollywood Romantic Suspens by Lisa Maliga

The higher you go into the hills, the deeper the secrets... A seemingly innocent piece of mail shatters the illusion of Beverly Hills luxury, forcing a terrifying statement from a powerful action movie mogul: "they can't kill us fast enough."
