Sunshine!
Life's lingering flashlight.
Too bright to stare at the sun.
Don't stay out in it too long.
Suffocating heat sometimes.
My porch gets like a baking oven.
Get burnt and it will peel your skin.
Visions of desert dunes,
Camel trails:
A searing sun that sends you delirious,
Mirage-seas shimmering hypnotically above the sands.
I love the sun.
My memories of buckets and spades,
Golden sandcastles along the esplanades.
Delicious ice-cream.
A cooling breeze.
Grass and pollen
Making you sneeze.
A mini-heatwave we have now,
But storms will come
Over that brow.
British weather I have to say:
Sunshine now
For which we'll pay.
