What a romantic place
Or so they say
A place for love
On a hot summers day
The sweet smell of cape jasmine
Lingers in the air
Bees swarming
As if in despair
The clouds floating
In the bright blue sky
The breeze has escaped
It didn’t even stop to say goodbye
Sweat rolls down my face
Leaving me with a dusty trace
The sun beats down
Watching the temperature rise
There isn’t a place
For a shadow to hide
The creek so cool
To take a dip
Have some refreshments
Take a sip
Children laughing
Lovers in gaze
These are the hot
Louisiana days
