Summer Is

Summer is 
tan skin
short skits
dirty feet
walking 
biking
running
to warm sands
cool waters


Summer is 
old friends
new friends 
distant family
talking
shouting
laughing
at coffee shops
busy streets

I wrote this free verse poem for a summer month and it ties in with my theme of seasons because it is my most favorite, memorable things about summer. I only describe two scenes in this poem but I feel like they are two very typical summer scenes that everyone one dreams about when they think about summer. Going to the beach, and hanging out with friends and family. I used a lot of verbs in this poem so you could really picture the scene. 


Poetic Devices
imagery - tan skin ect.
