Clouds calmly crawl,
Across the great, blue sky.
Busy, buzzing bees,
Fly right near my eye.
Tall, towering trees,
Sway with the warm air.
Chipper, chirping cardinals,
Watch me, as I stare.
The sunny, summer sun,
Tans the children playing.
Fine, flimsy flowers,
Stand still, as if behaving.
Dogs dig ditches,
To cover their nice bones.
Talkative, time-consumed teenagers,
Text friends from their phones.
People proudly pay,
To go on a nice vacation.
Tired, talking teachers,
Work at a new location.
Summer sings songs,
So that we can listen too.
The wonderful, wild world,
Wants me to sing with you.
