Springing into Summer!
Tapping foot,
Curled toes,
Bell rings,
Here I go!
Heels push,
Chair scrapes,
Race for the door,
Great escape.
Shoes kicked off,
Socks peeled. Thrown.
Grass underfoot,
Newly mown.
Cartwheel. Handstand.
Soles to the sun.
Barefoot summer
Here I come!
Curled toes,
Bell rings,
Here I go!
Heels push,
Chair scrapes,
Race for the door,
Great escape.
Shoes kicked off,
Socks peeled. Thrown.
Grass underfoot,
Newly mown.
Cartwheel. Handstand.
Soles to the sun.
Barefoot summer
Here I come!
