Summer Nights*

Contributed by Glo on Friday, 26th September 2003 @ 10:25:00 PM in AEST
Topic: fantasy

The Weather was Hot, Humid and Still......
Will I make it through another night?
Like the night before......I pray I will.
Lying in bed looking up at my ceiling fan,
As it goes round and round.
Listening to the motor, making that humming sound.

Watching the blades as they go round,
Making a whoosing sound with every spin........
Etched in my mind over and over again.

I lie here in bed and say to myself.........
If I had a dollar for every time
Each blad passed my eyes,
I wouldn't be hear at all.

If you asked me where would I be?
My reply........."Somewhere under a Tall Palm Tree!"
Enjoying the Island, the Ocean Breeze.
In my hand is a tall, tall glass........
Of the coldest Tropical Tea.

As I lie here under the tree, and say to myself........
"Thank goodness for Teachers",
Learning to count, really paid off for me.

Finally!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
