She is hot, she is sexy. She sends the mercury soaring. Makes hemlines rise and necklines plunge. She makes you long for the pool, to escape to the hills.
She tantalizes you with a flash of cloudy skies. Drives you mad with desire, but keeps the monsoons firmly under her skirt. And when you feel you can’t take it anymore, she ends the anticipation. Lets the heavens open up, bringing succor to parched souls.
Is she fickle, or moody? Is she experienced, or innocent? Can anybody read her right?
Would anyone want to?
Ridden with teenage angst, she is June.

Enjoy the drabble. Our June has been so hot I'm not sure I want to see what July brings. :)

Great story! True, too.
Love this; here in my parts, she would be named July~
Great job ;-D
What a lovely description! :)
You do these drabbles so well, Rayna. Our Colorado June has been very hot and a little wetter than usual. Lush and green is not our normal environment...but it does look pretty.
you are a poet, you know! the monssons under her skirt. wonderful.
This is fabulous, a very enjoyable read! It also describes the June we are having perfectly!
God bless you dear!

The days are long
Day after day
When April's here
That leads to May
And June must follow soon
Stay June Stay
If only we could stop the Moon
And June

Brilliant!! You have a way with words. Will come back to read more :)
Love it! (Wish I could say that about a Texas June. Here, it would be all about heat.)
You have a wonderful way with words.
You learn something new every day. I did not know what a Drabble was. Now I know. 10 words or less. Thanks.
