HOT SUMMER DAY

The beach is calling me

HOT SUMMER DAY

It was 10.am on a pleasant day in August 1998.

As I peeped through my bedroom window, looking at my gate,

I saw the beaming sunlight as it hits my face,

So I pull back inside and plan to start my race.

"Oh how hot this summer is" I said. '

"I should just be going back to my bed"

The morning sun, the glittering palm trees,

As they wave their limbs and shed their leaves.

I wish I could sit outside today,

But this summer has heat to stay.

The beach is the best place to go

And I cerainly have to let George know

Oh how hot it is right here, I need to get into my swimwear.

Off to the beach I will go, for in that cool water I will flow.

Oh at this time of the year, the heat will not go away

For everyone knows this is how it is, on a hot summer day.
