The howling winds of summer days
Bend tree branches to dance on air
And blow debris twirling crossways
From streets and roads unto courtyards
The showering rain of summer days
Wetting gardens and streets and fields
Watering farm crops that grow and sways
So farmers reap bumper harvest
The shimmering light of summer days
Shining longer into the night
Giving displays and light relays
Of golden sunset in the west
The restful ways of summer days
Lying on beach, watching the sea
Soaking sunlight for tan that stays
As we rest from labour and sweat
The crunchy fruits of summer days
Peaches, cherries and nectarines
Strawberries and cream with the buffets
Ice cream dessert enjoyed as treat
Refreshing times of summer days
Reading to renew mind and soul
As seasons change in the byways
We shore up strength for winter snow
