Attention, neighbors—

the sky will be wearing

its brightest blue today.

Please step outside,

let your shadows stretch,

and remember—

you belong to this light.

Take your pet with you.

Sit on a blanket.

Relax, and read a great book.

Bask in the sunshine.

Listen to the children

Laugh and play.

Watch the clouds when they appear

And see the sun shine bright up high.

Enjoy a picnic lunch,

Keep the ants away.

When your done, go for a swim

Or take a nap on the lawn.

This will be the best day

Of the rest of your life.

For Fun
