I am not sure when I stopped being delighted
by the sight of a lightning bug 
lighting up a summer’s night

Or being excited at the sight
of an ice cold popscicle 
on a warm summer night
 
Or being motivated to run and play
with neighbors in the twilight
of a delightful summer night

Life gets heavy for everyone at times, 
so I think I need to think like a child
on a beautiful summer night
