In the summer sun so bright,
The beach is where we take flight.
With swimsuits on and ball in hand,
We play in the sand, oh so grand.

But if the weather turns to rain,
We head to the garden without complaint.
Where flowers bloom and colors shine,
The raindrops make them look divine.

When the sun comes back out to play,
We head back to the beach without delay.
We'll build sandcastles, swim and splash,
And chase the waves as they crash.

So let's enjoy this summer season,
With beach and garden, rain and reason.
The sunshine bright and warm as ever,
Let's make memories that we'll treasure.
