Midsummer's noon
Midsummer's noon
Walking along the rooftop
Skipping alternate tiles as I hop
The sun is beaming bright
I look at my shadow that stands high
As I scoop out some ice-cream to eat
With my little spoon in this heat
My skin is melting and looks like beet
But still it is a comfortable afternoon
A fun alone time to spend
I whip out my notepad to write
And wait for the calm evening that might
Make the heat die down a little
Giving a head start
To the soft , humid evening time
That is yet to come .
