Spring is here! The snow is gone! What’s that green stuff? It’s our lawn!
Our coats and hats We’ve tossed aside! Let’s grab our bikes And take a ride! We’ll play some catch! And run from bees! We’ll play some sports And skin our knees! Today’s the day We’ll have some fun! See you later, I gotta run! | Summer is rainy Summer brings hot air balloons Summer has rainbows
| Summer is fun and never a bummer... And in Erie every Summer gets even funner.
