Summer Days
There we were speeding along
the warm leather seats of the golf cart
asphalt hot under the wheels.
The sun shines down
ever radiant above
the sky is as blue as ever
The occasional shout heard by all
as someone is hurt or excited
the happiness and joy in our hearts
Small waves hit the shoreline of Lake Michigan
the screams of swimmers as the water hits them
the smell of sun screen in the heat.
Little children laughing in the pool
the random parent shouting "don't run"
all good times wraped around us like a blanket.
The dazzaling sunsets
the golden ball falls to its daily death
as the stars begin to shine
There's only one word to describe summer
those longs days, wonderful days in St. Joesph, MI
"AWESOME"
Then summer days fade away
fall hits with a resounding boom
and the hope for more summer days.
