Summer Sky
Summer sky, pure blue,
Meets rippling aqua ocean
With barely a seam.
Parasails billow,
Lifted like birds on the wind,
Dancing above curling waves.
A lone cloud, mermaid-like.
Long gossamer hair, a tail,
Morphs into a squirrel
A boat cloud parade
Floating toward the sandy beach
Slowly dissipates.
Meets rippling aqua ocean
With barely a seam.
Parasails billow,
Lifted like birds on the wind,
Dancing above curling waves.
A lone cloud, mermaid-like.
Long gossamer hair, a tail,
Morphs into a squirrel
A boat cloud parade
Floating toward the sandy beach
Slowly dissipates.
