"Ode to the Four Seasons: Summer"

It's Summer, Oooweee!!
The best season, you'll see!
Fun without regulation
And endless jubilation!
School is out for vacation
No more scholastic frustration!
Some are finally graduating,
Their families happily celebrating!
Time for going on trips,
Like cruising on ships,
Or maybe flying on a plane
To a foreign terrain!
And wherever you are,
Whether near or far..
There will be plenty of heat
And walking around in bare feet
By the pool or on the sand
Or on the park's grassy land.
And there will be lots of swimming;
The resorts will be brimming
With people catching rays,
On those hot summer days.
As summer eases by,
It's now fourth of July!
On the day of our country's birth,
We commemorate our freedom's worth.
This day signed the Declaration,
A bold and timeless proclamation,
Of our rightful independence,
And we give it great eminence,
By taking the day off
And doing all sorts of stuff:
But the best of the perks
Is the display of fireworks!
Exuberantly cast,
They explode with a blast!
They are shot up so high
In the dark night sky,
That they're seen from anywhere,
As the lights float through the air!
Over the horizon, the show drapes,
Creating fantastical shapes!
What a grand exposition,
Of our liberty's acquisition!
Though no more reason
To party this season,
The rest of the summer
Is far from a bummer!
Chillin' in bathing suits,
Eating tropical fruits,
While you bask in the sun;
The fun's just begun!
Put on your board shorts
For some thrilling water sports!
Take a ride on the surf,
The ocean's liquid turf;
Or grab your water
skis
And zoom through choppy seas!
Knee boarding and inner tubing
Are tremendously amusing
Or visit some lakes
And board the boat wakes!
Snorkeling and scuba
Aren't only for Aruba...
So strap on your goggles
And prepare to be boggled,
By what you'll explore
Beyond the blue shore!
A bit of sailing
Will have you hailing,
Summer as the best,
Forgetting all the rest!
There's so much to do
From get
togethers to Bar-BQ's.
Long nights and star gazing
Will have romantic hearts blazing!
And whether married or single,
There's opportunity to mingle,
Memories to make,
And adventures to take!
The list goes on forever
Summer, the greatest season ever!
