Tan

#Coloryourworld #cyw #Holidays #Tan

 

To some,

an absolute must – turning nut – brown

nicely under the summer sun

 

Toasting under the sun’s rays

As they enjoy a ice cool drink by the

nautical waters

 

To others, an unachievable goal

As they sit – in the sun – for a few seconds

Next minute – despite the sunblock – red as a lobster

 

Typical reaction to the sun’s appearance ?

Adolescent Teens hitting the beach towels

Noon till sundown

 

Turning occasionally

As they lie on sunloungers listening to tunes

Next to the swimming pool

 

Taken after the damage is done

A dose of soothing after-sun (or calamine)

Next morning’s sun worship – spent covered up
