Summer Sky

Summer sky is smiling my way.
Clouds are blushing pink hues today.
Wind whistling, passes me by.
Sun kissing me; skin bronzing high.

Watermelon smiles, beaming seeds.
Lemonade mild, ice cubes in need.
Strawberry lovers, under trees.
Summer sky is smiling my way.

Old couples reminisce their days, 
all the children stay out to play,
I keep watching, heat doesn't haze,
summer sky is smiling my way.


The light is going, but still see,
summer sky is smiling my way.
Body warmed from different rays,
O how I love this summer...sigh...
