Something I wrote for school again, that I don't totally hate. heh

“Summer”

We giggled
And the water sprayed in our eyes
And the sun warmed our faces and made red hot burns on our 7 year old backs
We played house in my teepee in the backyard
And we made believe that my paddling pool and sandbox were the beach

We cried
And the tears ran down our faces
And the tips of our noses and cheeks became flush
We mourned when the mosquitoes stopped biting and the lightening bugs died
And we made believe they went to heaven and lit up the autumn sky

We grew
And the teepee was given away
And the burden of school weighed on our backs
We grew        up
And we made believe that we still remembered

Zoe thinks really deep thoughts @ 10:15 PM
