Sweltering heat
As the sun climbs
Droplets of salt
Sliding down your skin
Offering no relief
From the burning light
A vision ahead
Of tropical trees
And cooling waters
A softly blowing breeze
And a mirage of comfort

Thank you, Phil. I write first then try to find a picture that captures the essence of the poem. Nice to know I did just that. Have a great day!
