 SUMMER WEATHER

Sing of summer weather

Wind and sky together,

Clover-top and berry-bloom,

And haycocks in the sun;

All the forest places

Spread with shaded laces,

Oh, I breathe a sorry sigh

When summer time is done!

Fleets of clouds are floating

On the sky a-boating;

Meadow birds are flying past,

With wings of red and blue.

All my heart keeps saying,

As I go a-playing:

“Summer-time, ’tis summer-time,

The world is all for you!”
