The summer weighs us down with sullen  heat
Even cats and dogs  sit still as stones
Gone are early flowers with fragrance sweet
The summer weighs us down with sullen  heat
The hot flagstones return my angry beat
As people  scurry by ears to their phones.
The summer weighs us down with sullen  heat
Even cats and dogs  sit still as stones

Running away

You were always running away
And I frightened could not keep up
I only wanted to play

I was run over by a bike one day
But you did not stop
I was six years old, I could not cry

I always missed the right moment
Perhaps there was none.Now you can’t say.

We think there is a future when we can repair
How time flies, does not delay
