on that day...

Oh sweet, sweet summer,
How I’ve missed you so!
Shine your warmth down on me
And wick the tears from my cheeks so quickly
That the shock of their sudden disappearance
Zaps the memory of their existence from my brain.

I will court you barefoot
And together, we will dance under the twinkling stars.
Our laugh is the tangy scent of a fresh pineapple
Whose juice drips down our chins and giggles
As it tickles our toes.

I will soar with the eagles through the month of July.
Only from way up there can I clearly see
Where I’ve been and where I am going.
The beat of their wings will fan the hair from my eyes,
As we play in the sky.

I will race you down a grassy hill
In a white skirt so soft and so delicate
That it forms a cloud at my knees
And I ride it to the bottom and that
is how I will win!

I will hold your hand
As we throw color bombs at the moon.
He will awaken when they explode and then
We will have a spotlight and an audience
For our dance in the lake!

Oh beautiful, beautiful summer,
I thought you had forgotten me,
But here you are at last!

Oh wonderful, glorious summer,
I promise I will not ignore you.
We will spend every minute of every day together,
And we will have so much fun!

Oh sweet, sweet summer,
Don’t ever leave me!
You are my one true love.
