Midsummer Sonnet

In the middle of summer the heat waves
Long and short defined by the mulberries
Extra care is given to those who saves
Mulberries are ripe to eat wearily

In the middle of summer the heat weeps
Counting down to the last second meltdown
A thunderstorm brews and lingers with leaps
Such a sight to behold and have packed down

In the middle of summer children play
Off and on the merry go round and swings
Tag and soccer as well as other days
Decorating their phones and other blings

Off to go in midsummer days a word
To avoid the dangerous and boredom
