Have you ever smelt summer?
Sure you have.
Remember that time
When you were travelling
And feeling sick
From the twisting and turning car?
That was summer.

Remember that time
When you were waiting
For nightfall
So you could go out into the backyard.
And you could see the moon and the planets,
And even name the constellations?
That was summer.

If you try very hard,
Can you remember that time
When you were begging your Mum and Dad
To take you to the ice cream shop
Down the road?
Remember how
You were getting
Your favourite ice cream
In your favourite way.
Do you remember smelling the sunshine?
That was summer.
