Summer Rispetto

No more school books ‘cause summertime is hither. Happy children are playing - school is finished; sandlot baseball in summer such a dither; free unhindering time is not diminished. People going on trips to sunny seashore; easy living in summer what we long for. Ever wanting warm weather gives us reason; always dreaming of life in summer season.
