Summer Days on Brooklyn Streets

by Anne G

from dawn to dusk

were so much fun

Sunrise came

we played all day

we'd skip and jump

Hopscotch - The Johnny Pump

At sunset we

would sit on stoops

and eat our ice cream

pops on sticks

Night would bring

the summer breeze

to cool our feverish

reddened cheeks

We'd talk and laugh

then go to bed

with thoughts of

summer days to come

Why write?

I write because I am:

Driven to distraction by the inequities of the society in which we live.
Motivated by cruelty, abuse, ignorance and indifference.

My intention:To poke, prod and provoke!

"Moderation is a fatal thing. Nothing succeeds like excess." - Oscar Wilde
