It’s hot

So hot

Jump into the pool?

No pool? Huh?

Got a plan

Take the hose

Lay some plastic

Have the water

Roll down

The length of of plastic

But wait the corners

A mess

What!

Doused in water spray

That’s it

Going inside

Soon a jug

Poured right over the body

Dripping

Soaked to the bone

And the spray

Is directly on me

Running

Laughing

Water poured

back and forth

It is no longer hot.

Just time to

Officially

Go down

That water slide
