summer walking

sidewalk slapping underneath flip-flop feet,
toes brown on top and pink on bottom --
summer!

buggy bumping over chalk pictures,
ice cream painting chins and elbows --
summer!

air swirling moist around bare knees,
sun heating white sky without shadows --
summer!

head bobbing heavy as soother flutters,
salt licking lips as front door opens --
summer!

baby sprawled across cool blankets,
big girls sipping watermelon slush --
summer!
