I was hoping to have

One went to camp,

a fun, playful summer.

and one to the shore.

But my friends are away,

Two went to the mountains;

and it’s just been a bummer.

it’s made summer a bore.

I went to the pool,

I sat there and slept

but a sign said, “We’re closed!”

until I woke to a sound.

I walked right back home

I jumped from my chair

and sat down and dozed.

and had a good look around.

I leaped out the door,

The big house next door

and downstairs I ran.

was for sale for a while.

‘Cause there at the curb

I guess no one bought it

was a big moving van.

because of its style.

But now it’s been sold,

While watching all this

and movers are busy.

I had quite a surprise.

Just watching them work

A big car arrived,

has made me real dizzy.

and I rubbed my eyes.

Out climbed six kids,

I jumped all around

and it seemed to be

and ranted and raved,

they were two sets of triplets

‘cause with these new neighbors,

the same age as me!

my summer’s been saved!
