My Summer

My summer is carefully wrapped in a package of memories It is easy to open and share It is full of bright colors and music It is full of the gifts of nature Fresh air and textured cedars waving The buzzing of an airplane soaring the light blue sky The sag of a kite string lingering beyond Sidewalk chalk reliving the day The rattle of roller skates on sidewalks The click of cards in bicycle spokes The wonderful sounds of loved ones’ voices Laughter and giggles And family All wrapped in tissue and ribbons To be opened as a gift to share
