Summertime
By DVicki Fruichantie
Summertime – and the joy it brings
We love to hear the robin sing!
Grandchildren playing in the sand
Building castles, and saying
Gramma, I need a hand!
They can never get enough ice cream,
Or enough jumps on the trampoline.
Campfires, stories and s’mores,
Playing and fishing on the shore
Makes me feel young again,
Remembering “way back when”.
Often wish I could go back in time,
But then again, I wouldn’t want
To trade the new joy that is mine.
