It’s time for flip-flops shorts and no sleeves,
Holiday booked, high pollen you might sneeze.
Long sunsets and caramel evenings,
Catch ups, old friends, new plans, big dreaming.
Find a roof terrace for cocktail sipping,
The sun working overtime before dipping,
In the ocean cool, playing the fool,
Knowing you never have to go back to school.
Some like the seaside, sandy beach cricket.
Some like the shade to ease back and kick it.
Others like to bathe in the sun beams.
Till they’re strawberry red, should’ve worn some sun-cream.
Children playing, Wimbledon on the telly,
The DJ spinning Fresh Prince and Nelly.
Barbecues road trips and pool parties,
More ice cubes, cool down that hot body.
