Summertime

Summertime

This summer season must be the best,

For it is when with the world I am most impressed.

It is time to be out and to have constant fun,

To be under blue skies and the endless Sun.

 

Time for scorching hot days and muggy nights,

To see smiling faces all filled with delight.

It is time to relax and time to unwind,

While all about you there is joy to find.

 

Time to visit the beach and be by the sea,

For colds drinks, ice cream and for feeling free.

Once again we’ll mention the sweltering heat,

Since all the other seasons it must surely beat.

 

And it is time to look round and appreciate

These summer moments and celebrate,

For this lovely season shall in time be past,

So remember – enjoy it while it lasts.
