REFRESHED
Prompt - Refreshed : Write a poem about a time you really felt refreshed and renewed. Maybe it was a dip in a pool on a hot summer day, a drink of lemonade, or other situation that helped you relax and start again.
Egg frying streets
A sun that heats
Me up until I melt
Shirts stick like peel
Making me feel
Like an over roasted Celt
Then late one night
I'm trying to write
And hear a pattering sound
It swells, it hammers
It calls, it yammers
There's water covered ground
Though people say
A sunny day
Is always for the best
Too much of sun
Is never fun
Rain comes as welcome guest
It might be late
But this was fate
Drawing me to the downpour
I walk alone
Soaked to the bone
And feel my spirits soar
Refreshed again
I praise the rain
For bringing cool and succour
It's nature's way
She's trying to say
There is no one to best her
I'll be the same
When the name
Of lockdown's in the past
In a flood of gigs
We'll trough like pigs
Live music's back at last
