"Poem by G and G"
I have a friend, I don’t see her often
She bring warm days, and long nights
She has sand hair and ocean eyes, and a smile that can melt your popsicle
When she comes to town she brings good music and great adventures
She can be described as fearless, she’ll always keep you guessing with every new day
She has a tan that never fades and freckles that outnumber the stars
Her natural beauty takes everyone's breath away
Her voice sounds like waves hitting the sandy shore, and her laugh like fireworks
She's like entering a warm room after a cold day
She's the exhilaration you feel after your feet leave the high ledge and your anticipating the
water below
She's the exhaustion you feel after a long day with your best friends
But the thing about my friend is she doesn't like football games, or basketball games, or late
night study sessions
She doesn't like school dances or christmas break, she doesn't like furry winter coats or they
way boots sound while walking in the snow, she doesn't like building snowmen or having
snowball fights.
I like her warmth but sometimes even the warmest body loves the feeling of the cold winter air
When my friend leaves, I know she’ll always come back
You might know my friend
She goes by many names
She goes by the name love, by adventure, by fresh air, by sunsets, by the feeling of a popsicle
on your tongue, by the cold swimming pool, by the new friends you meet, by parties, by long
drives, by family vacations, by sunny days, by lake trips, by hammocking in the park, by tanning,
by bathing suits, but mostly by fun.
You may know her as any of these names and more
but her most common name is SUMMER
