Midday sun, Seated, no energy to run

“The seat on the sunny side, usually beckons to sit down, even, if you are not tired” Gun Roswell

Midday sun, Seated, no energy to run

The midday sun, high up, in the cloud free and cool blue, afternoon sky
Was burning the skins, of all and anyone, daring, to venture, outside
Without at least, a full and total coverage, of some kind of defensive clothing
Even if it means, constantly pouring sweat and uncomfortable moaning

So, for now, walking down the streets, looking, for something, totally sweet
First, the pace was fast, then more and more slowly, because, of the heat
Thinking, that then again, the hot weather, might not just be the very best
Time of eating any type of candy or cake, or anything sugary to say the least

Even hot coffee, at breakfast in the morning, seemed more, like a chore
Luckily for this, very weary traveller, some genius, had invented a more
Appealing version of the dark liquid, fancily, called frappe, so basically, a latte
But only in a state of very cold and calming, poured in a tall kind of glass-e

Alas, soon enough, all thoughts of any kind of food or anything else to eat
Was pulled out of the mind, as that totally consuming, sweat pouring heat
Started to get the best of this, supposed explorer of all kinds of things great
And then, the slowing down of the feet, so telling, it was, time, for a break

Suddenly, without any kind of warning, the sun, still terribly scorning
Sent out a ray (or multiple rays) of light, shining, on to something alluring
A bench, appeared, from the middle of nowhere, and placed, just in front
The road to the beach front, sitting there, as it was waiting for this runt

And to top it all, seeing, a bottle, of something cooling inside, laid there
Just like it had been dropped especially by order, somehow, knowing, I swear
It was still ice cold, sizzling there, when I dared to step closer and touch it
And then, when I was sure, it was real, I gently, and slowly, down sat, I did

Oh, what a total relief, I sighed, in utter bliss
Even if the touch of the bottle, made a slight hiss
Of a sound to the very warm, nay, hot air
But then again, I really, did not have time to care

Because this bench and water had me
The weary, tired traveller out in the heat
So completely, with one simple seating
Saved, and thank you so much indeed!
