Summer

As we are entering Summer

And the skies are turning blue

We want to soak all the sun

We want to buy something new

The birds chirp happily in the trees

Kids fall, cry and scrape their knees

Laughter and smiles fill the air

Everyone is happy Summer is here

Trees flourish leaves are green

Dry dusty ground no rain to be seen

Smells of cut grass hits our senses

Men out fixing and painting broken fences

Rivers run cool to quench our thirst

Run quickly everyone I want to swim first

Long are the days as are the nights

We love to eat the fresh fruits

The children long to fly their kites

Beaches will be full from all destinies

Suntan, lotion and cooling down cream

Red burnt tartan of patches we see

Oh how the summer can damage your skin so quickly

Animals take shelter to warm from the sun

Music it plays we are having some fun

Barbeques at the ready food plenty

Drink to good health

And a summer of wealth

As I look to the sky right above me

I imagine the clouds there shapes amuse me

I can see every plane that positions my eye

Off to their destination way up high

Crab apples and hay stacking the cutting of the corn

Bales piles up high bulls blowing their horn

Sheep grazing and cows to

Pigs slopping around in the mud as the cows go moo

Fresh water as cold as ice from the tap

Salad on the table

No mouse to fill my trap

Only the ones that fill the field

Sure their only harmless

Away from our shield

Wonders of the summer

How we long for long days

Of watching our children having fun

In the summer sunny haze
