Summer,
you are everything one could ever want,
with your warm sun
heating my skin,
I long for you
in these dreary months.
The way you turn the grass bright green,
enlivens every step I take.
The beautiful sunlight you bring,
is sometimes interrupted
by contrasting
cool rain.
The tears you cry
only nourish the plants,
and allow your beauty
to continue flourishing.
When you arrive,
it’s the perfect time
to visit the beach.
The sand fills my toes,
and the sun contrasts the cool breeze.
A rainbow of umbrellas
are seen from above.
I don’t mind the crowd.
Not to mention
when you occur,
the most wonderful thing happens.
Days are filled with freedom
and relaxation,
school is no longer a worry,
Summer,
I’m waiting for you.
