Summer Days

Summer days Growing up in Trinidad We just know one season That was the raining one Bet you want to know the reason In Trinidad the sun’s hot Through our the year And you don’t have seasons Like it has over here Trinidad’s climates comes from The northeast’s trade winds. And will be cool and dry Until the rainy months begins The times we go camping From November to May Then comes the crop time That’s when rain falls everyday That’s why in Trinidad Summer we don’t say Have hot sun for nine months Every single day But here in America You get old so very fast Because as a season comes You just want it to past When it’s the summer We do find it very hot The stoves are cold Nobody putting up a pot And when its winter It will be so very cold No matter how you dress Will freeze in your soul Then the spring comes And it rains every day U stays in side your home Don’t want to go out to play The season I love The most is the fall It’s when the place is so cool Don’t want it to go at all One time in Trinidad Some people say it snow But it was dense fog And they did not really know A girl who work with me From down wood land Says a taxi driver tell her so But we can’t laugh at the man The reason I write this My friend ask what’s summer Like back in Trinidad So I’m trying to explain to her Because one day soon She coming for a trini holiday And I bet she will say LOL What a beautiful summer day
