As the long hot summer ends into September
coolness becomes evenings and relief
has the summer months left you to remember
or were you to occupied and thought only brief

with all the many sunny activities that were shared
like beaches mountain hikes and traveling
has left my mind drizzled and body impaired
however with the breezes less tepid unravelling

I anticipate a welcome and needed  rest
soon the fall leaves will be blanketing the lawn
with a radiance of colors dressed at their best
with the sun dropping low i see a graceful spring fawn

leaping and bounding across the meadow so lush
then without pausing it was out of sight
now distant sounds of thunder have me in a rush
back home as the birds head to roost in flight

This is wonderful, as I have a fascination with the changing of the seasons. Where did summer go? Seems it left quickly this year...

P.S....how did you put your initials into the smilie?? I love that...~S~

A wonderful piece of writing! And thank goodness some cooler weather is on it's way. I think the whole country was sweltering this summer.  

Hugs, Marti
