My Summer Love

The sound of airplanes in the air
And sprinklers ticking everywhere
The sun upon my freckled face
Watermelon juice on my chin

Clouds in shapes of animals
Neighbors tending fresh cut lawns
Snails to search for in the shade
Hours to dive and swim

Playing hopscotch in the street
Tromping around in my bare feet
Dragonflies all over the place
My hair blown in the wind

The Winter is my acquaintance
The Autumn, my splash of color
The Spring, she gives me flowers
But the Summer is my friend.
