Swimming at my Grandma’s

 

Swimming at my grandma’s

Is better than it sounds

Especially in the summer time

When the sun is going down.

Dunking, making swirling waves,

My cousins, so much fun,

That when it’s night and time to go,

We wished it never done.

The water is so very cool

When a breeze is passing by,

I wish the day would never end,

And time would never fly.
