Summertime
Cicadas and crickets singing their tunes
Rising up early for hot-air balloons
Cold water creek rushing past bare toes
Flip flops, sun glasses, and minimal clothes
Picnics and baseball all among friends
Yards sales selling their odds and their ends
Splashing around in oceans, lakes, pools
Building sand castles with miniature tools
Weeding the garden and mowing the lawn
Waking up early at first crack of dawn
Bicycles, kayaks, jet skis in use
Celebrating for any excuse
Despite aches and pains, gray hair and wrinkles,
Summer’s the time when youthfulness twinkles.
