Poem
We let down the top to soak in the sun Now that the harshness of winter is done As you let back the seat and put your feet on the dash Saying, “keep your eyes on the road I don’t want to crash” I truly must admit that I’m torn completely in two The coast has its beauty, then again so do you As the beauty of the Sun is absorbed by your skin Like a kid at the candy store I simply want to dig in If life is a candy store sweetheart you are the treat All the other candy I tasted, never tasted so sweet The reason I love summer is because of the heat The skimpier the bikini, the greater the treat I can’t begin to express how wonderful you are Saying, “hey take a look at her I’ll steer the car” At first I truly had no idea what I should say? Though now it’s, “ok sweetheart, have it your way” I think that is because you know these words are true I may take look at her but I shall forever belong to you Summer is a time that is as bright as the sun Out goes the cold as it’s replaced by the fun We have our barbecues and sit under the stars Let down the tops and go for rides in our cars Go tend to our gardens in farmer John clothes Truly amazed at how fast everything grows Go hang out at the river as well as the lake Cover ourselves in oil than let our skin bake Embrace the moments because these words are true The days last much longer and the sky is so blue The dog days of summer I reckon that’s so We bark and howl at folk we don’t even know If life is banquet then summer is the feast I think we should gobble it up, to say the least Written for john's Summer contest.
