Hello, Summer!

Summer begins on June 21, and the school year ends around the same time. Seems like a good time for this poem.... remember, summer in the temperate zone (where there are 4 seasons) is equal to much anticipated vacation, play, relaxing, ... a general easing up of formal responsibilities. Notice the rhyming words used in this poem.

Hello, Summer!
by Gregory K.

Goodbye, classroom!
Goodbye, Teach!
You can find me at the beach...
Or in the park or at the pool
Or any place that isn’t school.

Goodbye, quizzes!
Bye, reports!
Hello days packed full of sports
And days when I’m just lazybones
While eating melty ice cream cones.

Goodbye, homework --
Lunchroom, too.
There’s so, so much I wanna do.
I know the school year flew on past…
But please, please summer -- last and last.
