Summer time is in the air,
summer time makes all people flare.
From all of the fireworks on the fourth of July,
and my mother's sweet blueberry pie.
Going outside is fun with the hose,
you put on sun screen, even your nose.
The sun is so hot, fiery, and red,
it's so hot I can't go to sleep in my bed.
I just sit around and try to stay cool,
some times I have to go in the pool.
I hate when I get burned though,
every time it happens I have to move slow.
Sports start up in the fall,
it is hard, hot, and tiring for all.
So before this summer is through,
think about what you could do.
Have a good time outside with friends,
before this summer ends.
