A day in the park, that is so nice
the birds are singing, the sun melts ice
the grass is green, the flowers are red
we stay here always till sunset
the day here at the Pepiniere
forget the class, why should I care?
it`s sweet to sit in the green grass
wish, summer wouldn`t be gone so fast
children are playing in the sun
dogs of all kinds are on the run
people all wear a happy smile
summer it should stay for a while
sunshine in your heart brings pleasure
giving a smile reveals unknown treasure
sunshine has a positive outcome
so people go and enjoy the sun
I`m always longing for the sun
winter`s coldness that is no fun
it makes people ignorant and cold
sun reveals emotional features untold
just look at them you learn and see
wonder why, there I wanna be?
sunny times warm up your heart
often being pinned by Armors dart
spring and summer are full of love
young couples are rising seven skies above
enjoy their time, love is so great
sun is humans most wonderful mate
but that is gone, winter`s near
people return to their darkest fear
locking themselves in a room
waiting for their depressing doom
the winter`s wind blasts and freezes
out of hearts, the emotions it squeezes
people are depressed and quiet
waiting for next summers sweet riot
waiting in a cold winter`s night
each day fighting our private fight
please God, send the summer along
that`s our season in which we belong
March 15, 2003, Park Pepiniere, Nancy/France
