Splash Pad

Children gather at the park
Dressed in swim suits
Wearing water shoes
Ready for the splash pad
Excited to run through 
Excited to run through
The water that squrt out
Enjoying, running
Getting wet cooling 
From the heat

I am reminded of the squeals of pure happiness from my grandchildren as they get sprayed with the hose as I read this one Darlene.

Does it ever get very hot in Canada, I thought the temperatures never rose above about 21 degrees Fahrenheit. I know the feeling of watching children splashing around in a splash pad, the giggles they all have warm my heart. Blessings and hugs, Jennifer.

Hi Darlene, What a fun summer write. I love to see kids running and playing in the water. You took me down memory lane as well, and I remember I used to get wet as a kid with the water hose. Thanks for penning such a write. PS, Read my poem Bye Bye:-)Alexis
