How long will it last, who can say?
You clean your sunglasses and get out the summer chairs
Two of them your neighbours, you forgot you borrowed theirs
The smell of a BBQ from the gardens all around
The children in the paddling pool making a joyful sound
Dad’s beer in the cold ice bucket ready to drink
The wine in the cooler mum’s missing link
Families playing sports in the overcrowded park
Not wanting to move until it’s very nearly dark
Kites flying high with the help of the breeze
Children drinking a slush and getting a brain freeze
Picnics set out with strawberries and cream
This is the life we all dare to dream
Relaxing on the lounger definitely Pimms O’clock
Fruits at the ready and a mountain of ice in stock
Dad looking grumpy as some kid made a catch
Mum laughs as Dad walks back with shame
Trying to remember the kid’s unusual name
The ice cream van with a queue a mile long
A woman walks past trying to hide her visible thong
A delicious ice cream with a simple chocolate flake
The weather so hot we may all begin to bake
Surely someone had sun tan lotion they could borrow
Strap marks down to try and sort out their tan
A child running round with a battery powered fan
The weather looks like its set for a short while
Which will hopefully make people muster a smile?
A party or gathering with a few crazy friends
Best get planning for the next couple of weekends
