Suffering from the summer swelter
seeking respite helter-skelter
shuffling 'neath oppressive sky
beseech the sullen clouds to cry.

Sway in syncopated step
shimmy, slip and slide and schlep
supplicate yourself to Zeus
set rainbow goddess Iris loose.

As.. split, splat, splot, success!
The sounds of drips and drops, and yes,
alliterative s's sounds
splosh as you dance the sodden ground.

I am dancing right along with you.  Love S's even with an occasional lisp.

Nice beat with alliterative `s`.  Different but I like different.

I'm not caught up.  I am more behind than I realized.  Guess we know what I will be doing on this holiday weekend.  Spending time in detention, for sure!
