Back with a smile, 

To my friends, just a little while.

Off to a journey to conquer, a mission to complete, 

But don’t worry I promise it won’t be long till we meet.

I’ll be back before you know it, 

So don’t cry, just sit.

I’ll bring stories of adventure and fun,

Something to share with everyone.

I’ll be back with souvenirs and things to show you all, 

I’ll be gone for the summer, but back before the fall.

So sit back and down frown, 

I’ll be back before you know it, with my feet on the ground.

Until then to my friends, just stay, 

And know I’ll be back someday.

I’ll regreet you with happiness and joy so grand, 

With stories of my summer journey across the land.
