The Forever Cottage
The Cottage unleashes my sunstunned summer daze
The Whipoorwill's calls back to the wood's heady sage
screen door slams in time; come and go
with the do what you will; row row row
soft windchimes tingle tantalizing
captured balmy breezes BBQ's sizzling
lapping waves reach the beach's shore
sounding their eternal song soar
screech of seagulls loom above tropic
lucky to have a poop plop on topic
hot sand run fast and loose
as toes dig deeper feed the moose
into the rippled Lake bottom the kid likes
The Big cool down, for many little tikes
the sweltering blast on the barn door
of Sweet Summer Sweat can I have more?
recovered memories linger longer and longer
forever past today awaits all those tomorrows
smell of coconut bronze everywhere
on bikini-clad barely-there
glare of midday sun
time to take five fun
sticky gooey icy treats eats
or a splash on hot flesh refresh
a great pick me up for
Never go away Summer!
