Heat Relief
As heat steams the yard
The sprinkler provides relief
In arcing rhythms
Children dance in spray
From opened urban redheads
The hydrants unleashed
An aloe balm now
Soothes heels and soles of bare feet
The concrete blistered.

Some lovely imagery here!
I love your personification of fire hydrants as “urban redheads.”
Fabulous imagery!
