Sunshine, spirits climb
Brushing pain away
Dark thoughts, of winter nights
And crushing thoughts held at bay
***
Red faces, souls warmed through
Hats on jaunty angles
Sunglasses shade squinting eyes
Wine glasses held by handles
***
Summer laughs, music playing
Smiling at passers-by
Bar-be-que smoke, swimming pool splashes
Happiness in the air
***
Summer is truly the time of year
When pain is washed away
Dark thoughts, of winter nights
And crushing thoughts held at bay
