Go Away Heat

I wake up and look at the weather report for the day. 106. Oh my, not another day over one hundred. How many more days will we find ourselves in this scorching heat? This summer began in the middle of May and has decided to continue now into September. I love summer, I truly do. But it's time to find the upper eighty to lower ninety degree temps.
Outside at recess, it feels like a sauna. Being out in this heat is draining, making it hard to study. People are grouchy and I'm always tired. I miss bike rides to the park and walks in the neighborhood. But I won't risk it until this heat goes away.
I am down on my knees, begging for some relief from this heat. I am begging for a wild thunderstorm to roll through and cool us down. Though the humidity would be sticky, the rain would feel wonderful.
