some summery summaries…

a cloudburst of wing-surges flurried around a fiery door lamp late at night…
in a nocturnal revival wake-up call for wayward moths that saw the light!…

a puddle of raindrops drifted downhill then hid in a playground’s crevice…
hoping the sky didn’t dry it up so it could stay and watch kids play tennis!…

a drive-in theater fueled the cool with new full-feature movie previews…
it paid extra for upcoming cold winter films to lower the heat index value!…

a swimming hole down in the boondocks got called out for no good reason…
so teens planted tall bushes around it last fall to secretly swim this season!…

kids started driving and soon a tire swing slid off of its rope of loneliness…
rolling into a garage for a wheel rim and a future carload of hopefulness!…

a home plate mumbled as a fastball flew past just a hair above its head…
“i wish i could wear a helmet too or be a cy young trophy’s plate instead!”…

a pair of sneakers led a covert mission to deliver a surprise party gift…
but the loafers on their feet idled too long and arrived after everyone left!…

endless tons of busy creek water scouted downstream for a merge ahead…
they’d been on the go for miles now and were hoping to find a riverbed!…

some tall grass wanted to wear a ponytail and hated if a mower came near…
its wish granted when a horse’s tail landed on it just before it disappeared!…

a postcard reclining in a tourist trap shop was scared stiff of flying air mail…
so it slid inside a harbor map and stowed away on a party boat’s cozy sail!…

a porch swing invited some night owls to drop by for a moonlight ride…
feathers flew as a fox hopped up and rocked those hoots into overdrive!…

a sandbox sat giggling as toys and shovels kept tickling its grainy innards…
to dig roads for autos attending all sand races that run thru’ dusty fingers!…

a merry-go-round lost its balance as a sliding board feared its own height…
and when a swing set suddenly got seasick it told the kids to go fly a kite!…

a hot dog went along to find some shade as a cold front behind it formed…
’twas down a mouth that a hot dog found the closest port before a storm!…

the kids kept hoping for a tree house but the yard only held a few saplings…
so they built a crude open greenhouse for new seedlings happily adapting!…

and…

warm wishes’ll bloom all summer long for music singing thru’ the parks!…
as rings of truth and roots of love complete the soul and keep the heart!…

(s’more to tuck in)… 🙂

(a know-it-all declared… “i’ve laughed more while reading war and peace!”…
a know-it-less asked… “so where did you read this all needs to be funny?”)…
