If You’re Not From Summer

If You’re Not From Summer

 

If you’re not from summer,

You don’t know the smell of fresh air blowing.

You don’t know the noise of birds chirping quietly,

The creamy ice cream in the hot sun,

Laughing with friends.

If you’re not from summer,

You don’t know swimming on a hot day.

 

If you’re not from summer,

You don’t know the fresh air that blows in your face, 

That smells like flowers.

You don’t know swimming and playing with friends,

The nice, cold ice cream melting in your mouth.

 

If you’re not from summer,

You don’t know your hair blowing in the wind like flowers in the wind.

You don’t know the beautiful smell of flowers and pretty flowers.

If you’re not from summer,

You don’t know my feet paddling back and forth.

Summer is the best.
