Sunburn!

When spending time out in the sun,
You must remember that it's not all that fun
When you decided to end your outside turn,
And return to discover bad sunburn.

It stings, it aches, it's shiny and red,
And if you weren't strong, you'd wish you were dead.
You can put on lotion, and that helps a bit.
But what you'd prefer is a sunburn kit.

Aloe will soothe all the while it cools,
And wearing sunscreen helps if you're lounging by pools.
But there aren't words enough to describe how it feels,
Especially when it starts to peel.

Sunburn is a product of spending too much time
Outside with the right about of protection in mind.
But at the end of the day, if I'm red, white, or blue,
I'm glad to have gotten sunburn with you.
