SUMMERTIME

I used to count the days

Until the sun was here

The days with heat and bugs

And the cold was no where near

Flowers bloom outside each day

With summertime, they’re here to stay.

Running barefoot in the grass

Is something fun to do

A picnic at the park

watching sunsets till dark.

Summer’s not for the faint at heart

The heat is so intense

It’s now the fall I crave

Offering much cooler temps.

How I do love the summer

But I crave the winter too

When the snow flies outside

I’ll be asking, summer where are you?
