Make a splash, tumble down
splatter upward, hit the ground.
Summer’s coming, be prepared
for squirting guns, and sprinkled hair.
.
Frowning killjoys not allowed
sunshine only, no dark clouds.
Swing on ropes, jump from trees,
skim the lakes on water skis.
.
Six months later winter takes
away the shimmer of our lakes
Enjoy it while the beauty lasts
for snow and ice appear too fast.

There seems no time at all between winters these days…

That’s the truth! Summer seems to last 3 months and winter for 9. I’d expect that in Canada, but not Florida. 🙂

I’d love to visit England — in July. I’ve heard the stories about the damp cold there.

The trouble with England’s weather is that it can be short-sleeve weather in December and cold, wet and miserable in July 😉

That’s so aggrevating. One year, I think a hurricane backtracked and became a subtropical storm that hit the British Isles. Y’all aren’t prepared for that kind of “wet.”

Frowning killjoys not allowed. Wish we could enforce that in real life too 🙂

It was fun to write. Frowning killjoys were the adults who yelled at us just for having fun. 🙂

The tropics are beautiful, unfortunately more expensive. 🙂

We don’t have a lawn. It grows and we make room for the cars. 🙂 You can do that when you live in the country.

I suppose. The suburbs and HOAs are a bit of a pain.
