The hazy, lazy days of summer – what a welcome time of year to relax, renew and enjoy!
The Hazy, Lazy Days of Summer
The hazy, lazy days of summer;
what a welcome time to relax and renew.
Splashing in the pool, swinging softly on the porch,
treading barefoot along shimmering grass kissed with dew.
The hazy, lazy days of summer;
they take me back to when I was a child.
Playing outdoors all day long, from sun up to sun down.
Each hour seemed extra long and the air, oh so mild.
The hazy, lazy days of summer;
filled with backyard barbecues and walks along the beach,
drive-in movies, the tune of the ice cream truck;
and the skies cluttered with stars that almost seem within reach.
The hazy, lazy days of summer;
they are timeless and always easy to enjoy.
But didn’t they somehow seem more magical,
when you were a little girl or little boy?

I love the summer especially relaxing by the pool with a cocktail.
Awww, that’s a nice thought…hope I get to do that soon…happy relaxing!
Beautiful poem, Felecia. O the memories your words stir up. I just pray that our memories of this earthly life ultimately bring glory to the Lord for all time. Ahh such blessings thou dust bestow are but like the symphony of the heart strumming across the strings of the heavenly chorus.
Thank you Randall…indeed, oh the memories…but so much more do we have to look forward to when we are in His presence.
Blessing to you,
Felecia
