Splash of chlorine wafts

Smell of coconut lotion

Hot, it’s poolside time.

Art Prescription:  My neighborhood pool is open for business. People are out of their winter hide-away and into swim-suits by the pool. Kids splash about with floats while mothers and fathers tend to their youngest swimmer. Happy memories for these kids, summer at the pool. As a kid, summer lasted a lifetime, and the pool was the center of our universe…swim for fun, swim practice, swim meet, swim all day long. Course their were Popsicles  involved, especially during the break each hour for “rest” time. Each season brings about a new set of memories old and new…it’s summer time!
