Could Summer Last All The Year?

Everyone is fond of the summer season
some just can't get enough of that sun
they travel worldwide to gain its rays
but the other seasons are required as one

Now here's a thought to ponder upon
what if summer lasted all year long
just imagine having continuous sunshine
our hearts would be filled with joyful songs

Children would want extra long holidays
even they could have classes held outside
more fun to learn about nature
sometimes summer rain keeps us inside

Now what if summer ended for good
and worst of all, winter lasted the year
nothing but cold, snow and ice
perish the thought, for it fills with fear

The heavy coats and gloves are on
never to take off at any time
well, maybe we'll stick to the four seasons
so ideal really, to keep us in our prime

Hi Darlene, so nice to hear from you again, I hope and pray your knee gets easier. That would be nice to chat on soupmail , I haven't had any soupmail for a long while so that would be good. Hope you're having a blessed day, it's wet but humid here in Scotland. Blessings always,Gordon

Hello Gordon, I have been going for therapy for my knee. I now do them at home. The excises seem to help the tingling I get in my knee. I was told it is arthritis from my lower back that the tingling your friend. /Darlene/ Would you like to chat with me on soup mail? your friend, Darlene
