MY OWN "END-0F-SUMMERTIME" RHYME


… Just a lil’ol’
 

End of Summer-”

{time}

Rhyme

*****
 


You have fled,  Summertime!

By the wind of Fall’s wing…

Beating ever so smug and serene.



Lest you guess that I care,
I’ll adopt a grand air;
Feigning smooth nonchalance:
(Why play fair ??)
 

 
Sad descent! Summertime,
For you left on a whim,
As Fall’s magic plies
Leaves from their limbs.
Seems the night air’s been smiling,
Crafting plans for beguiling,
Every harvest that pours past its rim.
Yet … as leaves start to huddle,

And Fall’s colors grow muddled;

Summer-haze gathers praise

                                     Where it will…

 


Makes me dream about
  “Long Days”
When earth cradled each sun ray;
Drinking LIFE like fine wine,
… (Soooo divine!).
 



 
Thus when memories grow faded,

Winter’s breath lingers jaded, and

Life’s frost withers fruit of all kind;

I’ll just drift back to “those days”

When we danced ‘mid the sunrays;

Then like love, drawn sublime:
                                                              [It’s all mine].

                     ...and just exactly when did it flee?   {About ~ 3:00 A.M. as far as I can see !!}

DO SAY YOU SING ‘IN KEY’ !!

DO SAY YOU SING ‘IN KEY’, F.M.G!! 
For it's a penultimate YEAR for you !
    
GROWING  OLDER ????,
hmmmmmm….
Like tall ships
That haunt our harbors,
-or-
 
As wine, grown fine,
From arbors;
Growing older has its merits:
Ask the horse …
“It’s life’s gold carrot!!"
 
 
 
 
 
 
***********
 
Now, you know that “age”
Brings blessings;
[On this point, I shan’t
Be guessing].
 
AGE is wisdom, peace, and knowledge:
Nature’sKEY
To life-long college!!!
