Summertime

Imagination, grows and grows
Playing house, dress-up, Barbie dolls
I play and play as I pick my nose

Happy-go-lucky, running around so free
Jump rope, kick ball
I’m as happy as can be

Scraggily hair, dirt under nails
Sand castles, mud pies,
Playing with worms and picking up snails

Riding bikes, climbing trees
Scent of pine; imbedded in clothes
Playing tag, feel the breeze

Lemonade stands, earn a buck
Make some cash
For the ice cream truck

Ice cream so cold and so sweet
I’m in heaven
What a delightful treat

Sleepovers in the tree house
Junk food, giggling, scary stories
Holding back laughter, be as quiet as a mouse

Peacefulness, and worry free
As night time falls we begin to dream
Being a kid; I’m as happy as can be
