Something Special In The Air
There’s something special in the air
It’s a feeling that can’t be found
Anywhere but in these long summer days
School is out, the sun is shining
And there’s nothing better than this time of year
When everything is new and nothing is planned
These are the days we’ll always remember.
Have Some Fun
When summertime is near
Kids can feel it, sense it, see it everywhere
The sun is shining, the sky is blue
And all we want to do is have some fun
June, July, and August – we love you!
A Time of Happiness
Summer is a time of happiness
All the kids are out of school
And they’re playing in the sun
The days are long and hot
And everyone is having fun
There’s ice cream and barbecues
And everything is just perfect.
The Weather is so Fine
Summertime is here
And the weather is so fine
The sun is shining bright
And the days are so long
We can go swimming in the pool
Or we can go to the beach
There are so many things to do
In summertime
There’s no time to be bored.
The Dog Barks
The dog barks, the sun wakes,
summer is here.
Fruit trees in blossom,
bees buzzing in the air.
Lazy days ahead, time to just enjoy
what summer has to offer.
The Sun is Beating Down
The sun is beating down,
but I don’t mind.
I’m wearing my sunglasses,
and I’ve got my ice cream.
I’m listening to the waves crashing,
and I’m feeling so free.
This is the best time of year,
and I’m so glad that summer’s here.
Sweetest Time of Year
The sweetest time of year,
Summertime is here!
The sun shines warm and bright,
Daytime lasts all day and night.
All the animals are out,
Running and playing in the dirt.
The world is so alive,
So much to see and do.
I never want summer to end,
This is my favourite time of year.
Finally Here
Summertime is finally here
The sun is shining and the sky is clear
We can go to the beach and play in the sand
We can go swimming and eat some candy
We can sit in the sun and just relax
Or we can run around and have some fun
It’s the best time of year
Summer, summer, summertime!
The Days are Long
The days are long and the sun is high
The weather is warm and the sky is blue
Summer is here and we all can’t wait
To go to the beach and play in the sand
We’ll go swimming and lay in the sun
Until it’s time to go home at night
There’s nothing better than summertime
And we all hope it will last for a while.
Finally Summertime
It’s finally summertime
and that means ice-cream time
I can’t wait to get my hands on a cone
I’ll eat it while I’m lying in the sun
There’s nothing better than enjoying ice-cream
in the summertime.
The Sea
The sea is blue and calm today,
Reflecting the summer sky above.
A gentle breeze whispers through the trees,
Bringing the salty smell of the ocean close.
I sit on the sand and listen to the waves,
Mesmerized by their soothing rhythm.
Thank you, for this summer day,
Filled with peace and beauty unsurpassed.
Sand Between Our Toes
There’s nothing quite like summertime
When the sun is shining and the waves are loud
We can feel the sand between our toes
And the salty ocean in the air
We can hear the seagulls overhead
And feel the breeze in our hair
It’s the best time of year by far
Especially when we’re at the beach
surrounded by our friends.
The Weather gets Hotter
In summer, the weather gets hotter,
But we still manage to have a lot of fun.
We go swimming and play in the sun,
And sometimes we stay up until nightfall.
There’s nothing better than a summer night,
When the air is warm and the stars are bright.
A Cold Drink
There’s nothing quite like a cold drink
to cool you down in the summer heat.
Pour yourself a fresh glass of iced tea,
or maybe a cold lemonade.
Whatever you choose, be sure to drink up
and enjoy the refreshing taste.
A Cold Drink on a Hot Day
There’s nothing like a cold drink on a hot day
To help you cool down and have some fun
Popsicles, smoothies, slushies, iced tea
There are so many choices, what’ll you have today?
My favourite is strawberry lemonade
With lots of ice and a slice of lemon on top
It’s the perfect drink to help beat the heat
So why not make one for yourself and enjoy!
The Flowers are in Bloom
Summer flowers are in bloom
The colours are so bright and gay
They make me feel so happy
I can’t wait for them to stay
I love the smell of the flowers
It’s such a sweet and special scent
It reminds me of Summertime
And all the fun that I’ll soon dent
I can’t wait to go outside
And sit in the sun’s warm rays
And admire all the pretty flowers
So let’s go outside and enjoy our days!
The Trees are so Green
The trees are so green
and the sky is so blue
Summer is such a beautiful time
of year
I love to sit in the shade
and watch the leaves sway
The trees are a peaceful sight
in the summertime.
Daisies
Summer daisies,
Crowns of gold,
Watching over me,
Protecting from harm.
They grow wild,
A carpet of white,
Bringing happiness,
In the middle of summer.
At The Seaside
We’re at the seaside,
Watching the waves crash as we sit on the sand.
The sun is shining and it’s so hot,
But we don’t mind, because we’re on vacation!
We’re eating chips and drinking coke,
And playing in the water until we’re soaked.
Every night we go out to eat,
Then come back and watch the stars.
Bucket and Spade
I love the sound of the waves
Crashing against the shore
The salty air in my lungs
As I walk on the sand
With my bucket and spade
Building a castle that will never be
The sun is shining and the sky is blue
And I’m so happy I’m here with you.
The long days in summer are my favorite part, having sun until late in the evening. Now, in May the sun goes down at 7:30 pm approximately which is pretty late and in July and August it will be even later. I love those days with long hours of day light 🙂
These poems can get anyone excited about the summer, going to the beach, feeling the sun on your face, the gentle sea breeze, the salty air.
I think you convinced me to go to the beach today (I live near the ocean) 🙂
Hi Christine,
I’m quite envious of you living so close to the ocean! Where I am it is at least a 2-hour drive away and the nearest beach has reputation for being very muddy rather than sandy.
I still like to go there though, and some of the surrounding beaches are very picturesque and sandy! I also like to eat some fish and chips which is a thing if you go to the beach in the UK.
I’m glad you enjoyed the poems.
All the best,
Julia
I like the sun one the best. Being out in the sun always puts me in a good mood. I think it’s because of the amount of Vitamin D that you get from the sun.
Thank you, Garen.
being out in the sun is great!
The sun is always shining
It seems to be a never-ending light
It makes me happy just to see it
Every day it puts me in a good mood
I don’t know what I would do without it
Out here in the sun.
Hello Julia,
Enjoyed these poems for kids. Summer is that time of the year we all love- kids and adults because it is a time of carefree fun and bonding.
Each of these poems is lovely and could make a short bedtime discussion piece – depending on the family activities that day. Lovely!
Ceci
Hi Ceci,
I love the idea of making a poem a short bedtime discussion piece.
We chat about a poem,
a favorite one that we share.
It’s one that makes us smile
and feel happy and loved.
We giggle and chat,
sharing what we like best.
It’s a special moment
before sleep comes to us.
Thank you!
Julia
