Steamy Shower

hot cascading waters
beat on my arched aching back
like fast rhythmic African drums
gently letting my black hair down
the fatigue stress& sweat of my 9 mile run
slowly fades with the shower steams

Mother Nature Releases Her Breath

Mother Nature releases her  breath
Cold and hard on heavy glass windows

Reeling from her effect
Window panes freeze completely
Delicate white lace stitching residues
Of her chilled breath
As snow

Finally Cool- Tanka

It’s pouring outside
As rain falls down from the sky
After weeks of drought
And 100 degree temperatures
Our world is finally cool

Au Naturel

It was too hot for Sunday night shenanigans
A scorching 105 degrees outside…

They both were sweating like pigs
Even with the air on

It was too hot for Sunday night loving
Any sort of shenanigans

Or at least that was what he thought

Until she introduced
Some alcohol laced ice cream
Glasses filled with ice cubes and
Frozen chocolate dipped banana sticks
And asked to play scrabble
Au naturel
