Home Again

Steam rising off the hot asphalt
The faint sound of the creek trickling in the distance
Birds singing their sweet melody
This is summer
This is home
Rays of warm sunshine from above
Clear blue skies, not a cloud in sight
The bright green grass feels soft on my bare feet
This is summer
This is home
Little flower petals falling
A calm breeze flowing through my long hair
Kids laughing and playing in the street
This is summer
This is home
Sunset making the sky above turn a beautiful shade of pink
The birds fly back to their nest
As the day turns to night
And all the kids run inside
Back home
