~Au revoir, sweet summer sun.~

reposted and stuck on a shelf. Pay no attention.

Au revoir, sweet ladybugs

And warblers flying south.

Greetings to the Harvest pie 

That's melting in my mouth.

We've stowed away the fishing rods,

The bathing suits; the kites.

Now's the time to bid adieu

To flies intrigued by lights.

Snow is on its lofty way

To overlay the leaves.

And sit amidst the bulky ice

That freezes on the eaves.

Falling from the arctic air -

Each snowflake soon will cling.

Lounging like a group of stars

"Til winter turns to spring.

Nicely rhymed. Don't worry; at the rate we're going, it will be summer all year long, even at the poles.

I hope so, I hate blizzards. Thanks.
