Summer is on its way, floating in on breathless clouds
Children are playing and listening to the sounds
Of hot windless, endless days and cool, perfect nights.
Every flower smiles at the blue sky above
Open and happy and willing to love
The sun for its life-giving joy and warming rays.
Rivers shimmer with golden, flowing trickles
The heat is getting heavier and tickles
Each shoulder caught in the blazing, amazing day.
By July it has arrived, deep, easy, and plentiful
The summer is here, full and wonderful
And the crickets chirp the pleasant music of happiness.
Fireflies twinkle and float by on the breeze
In a night filled with laughter of ease
From friends together sitting, sipping lemonade.
Splashing can be heard from the pool at noon
The kids are swimming in an oasis, but will soon
Be ready for a night of movies and staying up till dawn.
Yes, summer is here and now almost over
Thoughts of the coming fall will make sober
The happiness and joy only Summer can bring.
