Summer Winds

I wish Summer winds 
Would blow all through the year
And warm me minute by minute
To dry the tears of my soul

I wish Summer winds
Were not restricted to one season per year
Why does it have to feel cold
Because the sun is on vacation?

I wish Summer winds
Were capped in a bottle
To be released 
Just in time for Winter

Let the leaves change colors in Autumn
Let the birds fly South
Let the bees produce honey
Inside of Spring’s mouth

Let the pond, ice over
For skaters far and near
But please give me Summer winds
Every day of the year.
