Summer Days


Summer days they only last so long 
We try to enjoy them before they’re all gone
Remember nature’s most beautiful ways
Brought to us by the most wonderful summer days
They never cease to amaze
 
Sun shines brightly through the trees 
The calming feel of the summer breeze
The fields and the pastures gleam
Walking barefoot through the stream
Heaven on earth it seems
 
The smell of fresh flowers in a meadow 
Glistening waters have a special glow
Sunsets are like happy endings 
Summer, it’s a brand new beginning
Surely worth all the time you’re spending
 
Summer nights so lively, so rare
Spent wild and free without a care
Many fireflies are sparkling
Crickets and bullfrogs sing
What a wonderful time it brings
 
Lay in the clover look up at the big blue sky
Watch the puffy white clouds go by
Let the time go slow in all the possible ways
For all these times are just a yearly phase 
Brought to us by the most wonderful summer days
