Thinking of You This Summer

So, how’s your summer going?
You say it’s just begun?
Go ahead and do those chores,
But schedule in some fun.


Keep cool enough and maybe sweat,
Drink a lot of water;
You know how to stay healthy,
By now you surely ought-er.

Watch for flooded roads and streets,
We may soon get summer rain,
Don’t get sunburned on your bod,
Wear your hat, isn’t that plain?

Maybe take a vacation,
Watch those dollars and dimes;
Find some simple pleasures,
Having golden summer times.

Summer is only a part you know
Of God’s seasonal plan;
To others be helpful and kind,
Smile and enjoy what you can.
