Where did the summer go
We’re heading back to school
I miss the warmth already
As the nights are getting cool

I want those long days in the sunshine
I want the afternoons at the beach
The warm nights that last forever
Lighting bugs flashing out of reach

I want iced tea in a frosted glass
BBQ chicken and mac and cheese
Fireworks so close you can touch them
I want a sunburn, even, please–

I want picnics with the family
I want to taste a summer rain
I want to hug the skies forever
I want to come back home again

Life happens. Did not get a chance to get this posted on Monday. I hope everyone has a great week!
