Last Days of August

butterflies flit here and there

tomatoes ripen to red on the vine

afternoon naps make us sweaty and lazy

sunlight strong in the sky

lemonade and ice frosting a glass

fishing is great

skin is sunkissed brown

first day of school excitement is in the air

expectation of fall
