The summer sun lets out a sigh
As it basks in the blue of sky
With summers end she starts to weep
As all things prepare for a sleep

The leaves on the trees whisper low
For soon their colors they will show
They'll dangle and dance in the breeze
As if flying on a trapeze

Seems like summer has just begun
Now sadly it is almost done
There goes the fishing by the lake
Farewell backyard barbeque steak

Good-Bye summer she's on her way
But she'll be back another day
Hold her memories in your heart
For the short time you'll be apart

Pinkswimsuit,
This poem is as sweet and pink as cotton candy and you! All your work has a "fresh air" feel to it, even your blue lines do too. Thanks for sharing your precious heart!~L

Yeah, gonna miss the back yard barbecue especially, and the fishing and the breath of fall air . . . heck I'm gonna miss it all! But winter does bring it's small pleasures too, but not quite like Fall, and Spring.

Much enjoyed,

j.

Yes indeed, fall is falling . . . Winter raises it ugly, tortured head trying its best to freeze dry us.

Gorgeous stuff, very well written. I miss the summer already and though I like the autumn I don't like winter very much anymore. I am a boy of summer, I was born then. It's in my bones. I'm currently writing a song/poem about the changing from summer to fall and your lovely piece reminds me to get back to it.

Enjoyed this.
