The Sunshine in a Smile
Have you ever noticed
The brilliance of a smile?
A smile that’s meant for only you
Can make your day worthwhile.
It doesn’t cost you anything
To smile at someone who
Could get a little sunshine from
A smile that comes from you.
And when you smile at someone else
It makes them happy, too,
You’ll find the smile you gave to them
Will come right back to you.

Take a Day
Come take a day,
You need to play
When life gets too demanding;
Let's have some fun,
Summer has begun,
The weather is outstanding!
So take a day,
Let's get away
And play away the hours;
There's time to work
Another day
When we are getting showers.
Please take a day
Don't waste the time
That we could spend together;
We may not get
Another chance
To share this perfect weather!

Summer Fun
The school year's coming to an end,
June is almost here;
Seniors taking their exams,
Graduation time is near.
Vacation is just weeks away
For each and every student;
Most of them will find a job,
Earning money's always prudent.
Summer is a time for fun
To enjoy in every way,
But working helps to pay for gas
To drive your car each day.
So have some fun, don't work too hard,
Leave some time for play;
Summer doesn't last too long
Before it goes away.

Walking in the Early Afternoon
When walking in the early afternoon
I think of you and wish you here with me;
The woods are such a lovely place in June,
You would enjoy it, this I guarantee.
Walking down the trails relieves my stress,
The beauty all around envelops me;
If you were here with me I could express
The happiness I feel with you and what I see.
Come take a walk with me some afternoon,
If you can find the time to get away;
The woods are such a lovely place in June,
We’ll savor every step along the way.
