Shelby’s Ode to Summer by Shelby

Southern Sunset by Susan Yarwood Mitchell

Summer break is the most wonderful 3 months out of the year. It is the time when people focus on fun, go on adventures and face their fears. The warm weather, planned vacations and no school is what makes summer so loved. It is a time when students have little responsibility and can finally be free and at ease. Sleeping in, going out all day and staying up all night is the summer schedule.  People walk around in shorts, tank tops and shoes with no complaints.  Everyone is just a lot happier during the summer. Sadly, like all good things, summer has to come to an end.  This is why it is so special. People don’t take it for granted.
