My Family's Summer

Remember the freezing ice cream under the delightful

strawberry and banana smoothie ?

Remember the cold fizzy, bubbling in my mouth

and down my throat?

That was summer.

Remember the ice cold water over a boiling hot body

in a pond as we walked in?

Remember when we went to the Rainbow Dairy and

got an ice-cream that dripped everywhere?

That was summer.

Remember the time we went swimming in the cold pond?  We felt like we were frozen.

Do you remember the boiling summer day when we

felt like we were being cooked?

That was summer.
