Summer Vacation

In the light of heat and tranquility

As Summer vacation passes us by

Family time inspires great quality

To the fun, we desire to comply

Sometimes forgetting to even ask why

Time at the pool to cool down and be wild

Permitting freedom to every child

Together they jump in and go under

Practicing their strokes in ways fierce and mild

The children spark a deep sense of wonder

A Dizain poem submitted to dVerse.

There is wonder is watching the wonder of children. Nice line: “Time at the pool to cool down and be wild” I liked the sound of “pool” and “cool”. The cooling down seems almost the opposite of wild, but in the recent heat it may make being wild possible.

  The pool has been the best place to cool the heated worries and let the energy be heated freely for enjoyment.
