Lemonade kisses your lips and hugs your throat
The yellow sun punches your skin as your walk down the street
African violets and lilies wave at you in large crowds
Red robins whistle songs to you
The furious winds scream through your windows
Peach perfume guards your shirt
Sweat parades down your forehead and sideburns
Sand praises your feet and massages your toes
Beach waves frighten you
BBQ teases your nostrils and makes your mouth water
Freeze Pops dance in your mouth
Brownies comfort your belly
Marvin Gaye’s and Aretha Franklin’s voices soothe your ears
Your feet jump up and down between two ropes
They dance to the beat of the numbers drawn on the concrete
Green grass battles with your tears, your sweat and spit
The rainbow in the sky paints your stories
