Wednesday's Poetry Day ~ Heat Blistering Heat

For those of us who have suffered the blistering heat of the dog days of summer and for those who are still suffering from them, I dedicate my poem. I know, I know, it's no fun. I for one break out in hives on those days if I venture outdoors. Anyway here you go.

Heat Blistering Heat

AC running day & night
Fans not giving us relief
No cooling soon in sight
Temps giving lots of grief

Heat, blistering heat
Humidity and hazy wet
Sidewalks burning feet
Bodies dripping sweat

Days like this are never fun
It's so hot in the shade
Triple digits in the sun
Hottest summer in a decade

Now home from the work place
It's time for a cold shower
Oh how great the water feels
Small relief from heat this hour

Days like this are never fun
For It's so hot in the shade
With triple digits in the sun
The hottest summer in a decade
