Notes About The Poem

Summertime

It's summertime and time to have some fun. Put away my coats and boots and find that box of flip flops, sundresses and shorts. Oh, so many wonderful things to do and to behold . . . pick some wildflowers in the woods I could wear pretty sundresses every day go for a city hike the farmers market is calling how about a picnic in the park lets go feed the swans and dangle our feet in a cool stream we can walk barefoot on the beach collect some pretty rocks and shells watch the sunset take a country drive (the scenery is lovely) blow bubbles in the air just because go to a fair and play some games ride the roller coaster and merry-go-round go for a boat ride sip a drink on a restaurant patio maybe a drive-in, honey or we could snuggle on the porch swing listen to the crickets sing __________________________ May 25, 2015 Poetry/List/Summertime Copyright Protected, ID 05-677-041-25 All Rights Reserved, 2015, Constance La France Written for the Standard Contest, Summertime Sponsor, Janis Thompson, Judged 2015 Eighth Place ___________________________ Written for the contest, Summertime Fun sponsor, Debbie Guzzie, Judged Fifth Place
