Summertime Is Coming

Summertime is Coming By Franklin Price 5/28/2015 Summertime is coming To the northern hemisphere The Sun half north in movement As in every other year The days are getting longer Alaska's hardly ever dark Don't even need a flashlight Walking midnight in the park School is out well almost Except for make up days Brought on by snows of Winter To skip them never pays The balmy days of Springtime Turn to Summer days of heat You can keep a little cooler By wearing flip flops on your feet The beach is calling out your name Come and make the scene Protect yourself when going there Apply a very good sun screen Hydrate yourself by drinking H2O not alcohol Alcohol's not for hydration Makes you stagger sometimes fall Although we'll try stop them Try to nip them in the bud Mosquitoes will return again Little pests to suck your blood Leave no water standing It's a place where they will thrive To make more little babies Who will eat you up alive I've expounded here a little Of the good and bad of Summer Heed the words that I have writ here So those days are not a bummer
