Summer Fun

Summer Fun

While gazing at the summer sky
watching lazy clouds drift by

Birds on wing join the view
floating high up in the blue

Through the trees a soft warm breeze
keeps tickling all those bright green leaves

The time is now, soak up some sun
laugh and play and have some fun

Frolic in those water waves
to cool off on the hottest days

Build sand castles, swim and ski
enjoy it any way you please

The fun continues when the sun retires
as we party around those big bonfires

Talking, laughing, new friends made
join in now, don't be afraid

Indulge in memorable season delights
Summer fun doesn't stop when the day turns to night.

Excellent Lenna :) Login to Reply Lenna Walker Date: 6/22/2017 5:14:00 PM Hi Heidi, exactly. I wrote it for the first day of summer, always hoping people will go outside and enjoy it, without cell phones, computers, video games, TV .... . Thank You :)

Chris Green Date: 6/22/2017 1:19:00 PM Well, I guess that answers my question. :) You are so right my friend, it is summer and time to have fun. Everything you mentioned sounds so inviting and something I can't wait to indulge in. Oh and chasing fireflies when the day turns to night. :) This is so happy and free Lenna. Beautifully written my friend. Happy Summer!!!!

They used to be so many, like twinkling lights, but now there a great spaces between with so many less. Thank you so much my friend, Happy summer to you also :)

Darren White Date: 6/22/2017 12:52:00 PM This sounds like so much fun, that I ALMOST start loving the summer :) Almost, because I am a winter person! Such a lovely poem, Lenna. I can see it happening, especially the swimming sounds wonderful.
