Poem: Heat Wave

"Crack" was what I heard
Because the sun was a chariot of fire
I was so hot, I could have melted
"Splash" is what I heard in the water
Most animals tried to hide from the sun under the water
Everything looked perfect outside from the inside
The river was running the water the rocks
My bow-wow laid under the trees for air
It seemed that nothing can make it go away
What's weird is that if you looked on the ground it would look wet
But I knew that it was nothing but the heat
The chariot of fire seemed to have gotten worse by the minute
I brought my dog inside and cut the fan and television on
There was breaking news at the bottom of the screen
That's when I realized that there was a heat wave out-doors
