As summer begins to fade away

As the summer begins to fade away

I can already feel my fingers tingling

The sun comes out but it does not stay

For as long as the leaves begin to fall

I’ll wish that I could catch them

Back on their branches I’d put them all

If only there was a way

To turn back time

And keep my summer’s day

With all its warmth for me to store within

Yet here comes winter

Already chilling as if Id committed a sin

To whom might I owe this great pleasure?

I blame myself for not making better

Use of my time instead I chose leisure

I think I’ll write myself a letter

For when winters past

Maybe I can talk some sense

Reminding myself not to waste it

Because summers gone way too fast

..that first chill.. you know it is September.. but then you feel that in the air and at first it is comforting, and a relief from the harsh sun of the summer.. but then there is that chill that tells you it is time again for everything to retreat, everything to sleep, and the trees begin to weep in color until the skeletons of winter are revealed to us again.. almost depressing to think about.

True story. I really dread winter and before it even hits i am wishing i did more with summer, especially this summer. I was chilled all day yesterday and so it was really begining to set in. Thank you for the review :) much appreciated.

it used to depress me.. when I would feel that. I hated driving out in the snow. I hated the cold. everything stays dead for so long where I live.. the green is so late to be seen and too soon to leave.. you are welcome.
