Summer Days

Dawn Krakowski
The sun beams down from the sky
The clouds are playing hide and seek
An ice cream truck rolls slowly by
And children jump rocks across the creek

Summer days seem simple and free
No homework to do or place to be

Faster and faster the days slip past
Already another ten years are gone
You really wanted it to last,
But alas, the curtain is drawn.

Summer days need to be simple and free
Or at least...that's how they used to be.

In April 2011 I married the most amazing man, and want to put more effort and time into my writing. I love to play video games and spend time with my husband.  View profile

    This ages me, I swear it does. I really like your personification, though. And ice cream trucks are the best part of summer!
