Summers Memory

Two birds just chillin on a telephone wire
Chirpin amoung themselves
I want to take that picture
And put it on my shelf
The closeness of these love birds 
Is a thing to admire

Watching a butterfly on a flower
So beautiful but fragile it would disappear
With a heavy breeze
She hides during a summers shower
This all has put me in a trance like freeze

I do not want the day to end
As I look towards the sky
It reminds me of the calming seas
All the different shades I capture
I want to be a bird 
To beable to fly
To get so close to the views
Up so high in that tree
Looking down below
Enjoying all the movement
Making memorys of summers scent
So no thinking of snow

Laying in the cut grass on the ground
Bees buzzing collecting their food
Enjoying the summers sound
Of a birds beautiful but sweet melody of a song
At this moment my stress is free
I'm in the greatest of moods
Nothing can go wrong
Just laying here lazy as can be 
Just enjoying the nature around me 

The warmth of the sun
Wraps me with its rays
The cool breeze through my hair
Watching the kids having fun
Ahhh these are the perfect days
All I do is smile and take a picture to share

Making new friends 
Swimming in the pool
Children make pretend
While playing at the park
Summer truely does rule
Can't wait for the fireworks after dark
We are so not ready for school 

I could enjoy summer all year long
The heat of the sun
Will always out beat the cold 
Summertime makes me feel strong
Winter time if you hear me "Stay away!"
Don't make the day turn wrong 
Never even come another day

Shorts T-shirts and ice cream
Flowers suns warmth and summertime 
Spending eachday in a summers day dream
Smelling fresh cut lemons
And listening to the wind chimes

Summers memory
Will be stuck in my mind
For when winter comes around
But for now I will enjoy what I find
In summertimes loving sound
