A poem about the joys of Summertime.

Image via Wikipedia

Summer is a special season,

for families to have some fun.

Spending time together outdoors,

beneath the bright and shining sun.

Summer is a special season,

for vacations at the beach.

Building castles in the sand,

listening to the seagulls screech.

Summer is a special season,

for family picnics in the park.

Walking along the nature trails,

watching children play until dark.

Summer is a special season,

for talking a long scenic drive.

Going hiking in the mountains,

fresh air to make us feel alive.

Summer is a special season,

for cookouts and barbecues.

A time for rest and relaxation,

a big inspiration for my muse.
