I treat myself on days like this, as summer sun bakes skin
I eat a bountiful amount, could I eat myself thin?
Oh no, I feel I must express my feelings for this treat
A Cheescake on a patterned plate, the dog sat at my feet
A smile a lot on days like this, as summer bakes my skin
Sitting on the patio, watching summer win
The battle with the winds of spring, banished for a year
Summer's here and I smile a lot, and wipe away a tear
That tear was just the joy of it, as summer bakes my skin
The bees and insects gather in such numbers my mind spins
And as the days get warmer and the colours spread around
My spirits lift as daylight fades, my skin's a shade of brown
