Special Feature Collaborative Poem--By David Fox, United States and Jack Horne, England

Summertime

By David Fox, United States and Jack Horne, England

Kites are flying high in the sky,
people lying around the beach,
kids are blowing soap-bubbles
and catching fireflies in jars,
baseball season is in full swing.

Long hot days, long muggy nights,
sipping cool drinks by the poolside,
strolling along the sunny seafront, 
happy laughter and seagulls' cries
mixing with music from the fairground.

Ah, childhood memories of Summer, 
we remember you well...
