A day so hot you exhaled breaths of heat
Perhaps an egg could be boiled on the street
Little chance of expecting a repreive
Inhaling steam each time you tried to breathe
The sun glaring down shinning so brightly
Stillness in the air holding so tightly
Suddenly a cloud appeared in the sky
Looking up as raindrops fell in my eyes
Blessed relief from the pain of the heat
I kicked off my shoes to free my hurting feet
Lifting my hands I danced as warm rain fell
Sun shining through the droplets cast a spell
Mesmerized I suddenly feel at ease
Kissed by a soft warm gentle summer breeze
