hot night ahead

an oppressive heat
pushing down from above
keep the energy level low
they call it vacation for a reason
not planning on doing any work
if I can help it
nearly one hundred
degree heat with some
intense humidity
hoping that makes sense
not complaining here
knowing as the sunlight fades
the cool air will relieve
some of the oppressiveness
thinking on a trip northward
only a couple days might
help clear the mind
woke early to the sound
of thunder tearing apart
the sky after midnight
worked through the day
with a surprise waiting
at the end
an extra day of vacation
elated and soon to be elevated
always reaching new heights
especially on vacation...
