My Summer Aspirations by Scott Lentine

Reaching out, making connections

Looking for friends and new directions

Exploring new places and meeting people

Moving forward and looking for life’s next sequel

Beautiful beach weather with waves crashing on the shore

Allows me to connect with nature

My senses feel alive to the core

And I relate to life’s basic force

Crowded beaches with people everywhere

Dogs of all shapes and sizes

Makes me feel like part of the affair

And I am happy and my spirit rises

Celebrating the vacation with family and friends

Seeing new and old acquaintances

Helps me reconnect and feel alive

And enables my mind to thrive

Summer is a great time of year

A bright new beginning in life is here

My plan is to make the most of this season

And let the meaning of my life deepen
