Summer Time

Summer Time
   

I love the bright and sunny sky,
And the occasional cloud passing by.
I enjoy the breeze through my hair,
And the birds singing in my ear.
I love the smell of fresh cut grass,
And iced tea in a frosted tall glass.
I enjoy a nap out on the swing,
And the laugher that children bring.
I love the shade of the trees,
And the color of the leaves.
I enjoy the sweat on the nose,
And the warm sand between my toes.
I love to watch the flowers grow,
And the butterflies with their graceful flow.
I enjoy the scent of a shower near,
And smiles that spread from ear to ear.
I love a BBQ out on the deck,
And the gorging until I feel like heck.
I enjoy sharing with one and all,
And neighbors coming at a beck and call.
I love winter and I love spring,
And the newness that each one brings.
I enjoy the colors of the fall,
But summer is my favorite of them all.
