The Summer’s Life To Me
The Summer’s Life to Me
By Jesus Olivas – Estrada
The clouds fade away
as a new bright shine comes out.
The cars and grass
start to shine like the sun.
I hear laughter
and water splashing with birds chirping.
I smell my mom’s cooking
and the summer’s fresh air.
I see people playing football
with joy and laughter.
I wonder if this
fun will last forever.
