It's always Sunday
in the squares
Sunny and swell
as lemonade in July
with the peel
just
floating
on
top
Careless on the surface
as a teenage girl
on an air mattress
shaped like a slice
of watermelon
Posed precariously
like a pretty sprig of
thyme before it's tossed
aside at the start of the meal
Contrived obviously
Yet, on the shore,
we kneel
and paint our lawns
in another
another coat
of green
