"SUMMER ON THE ISLAND"


"SUMMER ON THE ISLAND"

The soft gentle breezes flow
As the tide comes in once more
And the ocean waves are deafening
As they crash against the shore.

The children play ball until dark
A woman misses her darlin'
A dog barks at the moon
It's summer on the Island.

Soon after church on Sunday
The barbeque's a blazin'
Steak & lobster to eat
Fresh blueberry pie...amazin'.

The many birds fly all around
A woman misses her darlin'
The Lighthouse works its majic
It's summer on the Island.

Laundry on the clotheslines
Flowers in the wind
Rhubarb and wild berries
Tempting palates once again.

The tide recedes as always
A woman kisses her darlin'
The sun shines on his boat
It's summer on the Island.

Rejoice, live and love
It's summer on the Island.
