No more school books ‘cause summertime is hither.
Happy children are playing - school is finished;
sandlot baseball in summer such a dither;
free unhindering time is not diminished.
People going on trips to sunny seashore;
easy living in summer what we long for.
Ever wanting warm weather gives us reason;
always dreaming of life in summer season.
