Summer

June 27, 2006

sun and wind
clouds every shape
green leaves
and grass
popsicles and
lemonade
i’m not joking
chips and salsa
beer and cheese
and white wine
in the backyard
burgers
on the deck
walks
ice cream cones
boat anchored
swimming
on a sandbar
hotrods
on university
afternoon rain
weekend construction
driving
here and there
an hour our own
off again
bonfires
fireflies
in the damp woods
air conditioning
and fans
sweat and cold water
from the sink
on my face
sunglasses
baseball cap
sunburn
and bugs
and bug dope
and sunscreen
long evenings
kickball and drinks
coolers and coozies
friends
frisbee
fishing
from the canoe
short nights
and bright mornings

summer

    Nice! Summertime is an excellent time of year. Nothing beats a nice cool breeze around nine o’clock at night with the sun still in the sky, the brats on the grill and a cool beer in your hand.

    Yo, when I’m fishing
    Let’s keep one thing clear
    The bait’s over there
    The brew’s right here
    Two six packs and a big bag of ice
    Didn’t even catch a bite
    But the brew tasted nice
    Back to the bar
    Strawberry daiquiris and a colada
    I need a whole lotta them
    Fruit drinks to catch me a buzz
    I must tell you I’m the Cool-Aid kid
    Before you serve me a drink
    Please stick it in the fridge
