Summer means...

Summer means a lot to everyone, everywhere;

The garden city prepares in every way

To declare the dawn of a new season,

That gives it, to celebrate a great reason.


The trees are in full bloom

Coming away from  winter's gloom

The sky is blue as far as you see

Over the concrete structures' pedigree.


The streets are flooded with many a fruit;

Melons, guavas and oranges en route

To beat the heat of the sultry day

Which continues to soar all the way.


There are festivities of a new beginning

To mark nature's transition, making

It apparent in every form of existence,

That we witness in exuberance.


Our lovely city enjoys a beautiful weather

Summer is warm and hot together

But, when it gets too hot and boiling

The clouds gather above to keep it cooling.


As the schools close their doors

The kids head to the greens and the shores

They eagerly flee to their granny's home

Where all day they can roam.


The days are long to go along

Every day has in it among

Many things, freedom, fun and peace

That leave us to remain at ease.


Until the season reaches its peak

It's fun and frolic week after week.

Once it loses its steam to the wet rains,

The spirit sobers; to think, it strains.
