SUMMER IS HOT!

Here's a little poem
In honor of summers past...


Ode to a Firefly


Firefly, flying by
Illuminating the dusky sky
Your fleeting glow catches my sleepy eye

Firefly, flying free
Not taking life too seriously
I’m looking at you, are you looking at me?

Firefly, flying past
Over the clover growing in the grass
Signaling summer has not yet passed

If I could talk to you
I’d ask you to explain
How your fire stays lit
Through the thunder and rain
I’d tell you how happy
I am when you're around
I'm eight years old again
And life is a playground.
