Bring On Summer

School's out, bring

      on summer.

Swimming holes make

room for us.

Birds sing your hearts

out for me.

Summer vacation and

    on cloud nine.

Sleeping in, having

    dreams of what may

come true for me.

Summer sunshine and

having fun.

Baseball fields and

friends together.

Summer over, back

to school.

What happen in

between, was fun

and another summer

    of my youth went

by, to be remembered

for all time.
