Summertime, sun beams
Touching my cool, silky skin
In the break of dawn.

The author's comments:
Almost every summer morning, I wake up, feeling the warm sunshine on my cool, brown skin, gently waking me up, begging me to bathe in its perfect warmth.

When life gives you lemons make iced tea because you make your own paths in life not fallowing behind others, true love never dies, don&#039;t give up on your dreams, if you shoot for the moon and miss don&#039;t worry because you&#039;ll land among the stars.
