Summer Song

by John Ciardi

Summer Sun FaceBy the sand between my toes,

By the waves behind my ears,

By the sunburn on my nose,

By the little salty tears

That make rainbows in the sun

When I squeeze my eyes and run,

By the way the seagulls screech,

Guess where I am! At the . . . !

By the way the children shout

Guess what happened? School is . . . !

By the way I sing this song

Guess if summer lasts too long:

You must answer Right or .......
