Summer Happiness is about a man sitting in the park watching a pleasant sunny day go by as children happily play and enjoy themselves. It also describes the birds in the trees and the noisy babies. As the man sits there, he is free of worries and stresses, and fails to think of anything better to do with his day, or anything he would rather do.
Rhyme is used in the song to imitate sound - ‘day, play’ - reasonably successfully. A pattern of three is used to list what is going on and to successfully create an image in one’s mind - ‘Kids giggle, Birds chirp, Babies burp...’ Assonance is used to imitate sound with minor success on line 11 with ‘Happy and cheerful, eating ‘till they’re full...’ Alliteration is used successfully with ‘Babies burp.’
