POOL COOL

Cooling in my little pool.
So soothing, I can’t help but drool.
Mom understands, has just one rule:
when other kids are in the pool,
wait till I’m out to drop a stool.

RUM NUMB

I find one way to beat the heat
is from consciousness retreat.
I drink till I fall off my feet,
pass out; oblivion is sweet,
before a cold front comes to greet.

MAN FAN

When it’s too hot to walk or skip,
it’s time to take a little trip.
With top down, steering wheel tight grip,
accelerate to a good clip.
Just try not to make a blip
on radar, or the spell will rip.

    I love how you were on a monorhyme roll
    Ways of staying cool from pool to Dole
    While cruising along to feel the whole
    Of staying cool to sooth the soul
