Mr. Summer!

Oh! How we do loved you!
You got so much to offer and to take away
No one knows you better than you yourself

There’s so much you offers

You bring comfort and joy to families and loved ones
Rest for the working class. Break for our hard working teachers
And students alike

Your presence is always welcome.
This is seen in the parks, gardens and public squares where every one
Would be in a merry mood

With you around, when you does come, people of all would plan what to do with your presence
Some would travel to the four corners of mother earth
For others, it would be a time to learn of something new and to see new things

Your presence is so much appreciated Mr. Summer. So much that most people
Would greet your arrival in semi-nakedness.

But you upset mother Earth by allowing thick plumes of smoke to be ascending into
The air from our backyards, and parks all in the name of BBQ.

You arrive unannounced and departs in the same manner living everyone upset

Only to be visited by Mr. Spring closely followed by Mr. Winter who never smiles, not friendly and never warming to any one. Instead of his (Mr.Winter’s) presence, we are force to double everything we put on, double our prices for heating, food and more

Then, pressure is put on Mr. Tea, his right-hand man Mr. Sugar and their friend Mr. Milk.

Please! Come back Mr. Summer. Come and stay with us for a while.
