SoCS: The Cheers Poem

Cheers to air conditioning

and the space that’s not too hot

Cheers to capris and flip flops

the short shorts…I cannot

Cheers to coconut ice cream

and lemonade in a glass

Cheers to a swimmable lake

and flopping down in tall grass

Cheers to riding an orange bike

and walking wooded trail

Cheers to a frosty mug

and its contents to inhale

Cheers to blue sky and sun

and the birds that chirp their song

Cheers to childrens’ laughter

and the days that are brightly long

Cheers to the floral display

and the colors of neon hue

Cheers to the southerly wind

and the warmth of which we accrue

Cheers to the gift of summer

and relief from a chill not here

Cheers to three more months of this

and the reason to down a beer

Stream of Consciousness Saturday is the brainchild of author Linda G. Hill. Every Friday, Linda provides her followers with an inspiring blogger’s prompt. It can be a word or words and sometimes bonus points are involved (my favorite). Linda asks us to write without editing, other than correcting spelling errors.

Just go with the flow.
