My Ode To Summer...

Author: QuietStormF

Sullen leaves fall steadily
Whispering good-bye
As though in a trance...
They seem to know,
The time has come to die.
Wafting drearily,
And weightlessly,
Across a crimson sky...
Even strong old Mr. Willow,
Seems to hang his head and cry.
Cotton candy clouds, seem to wave,
And then to frown...
As summer reluctantly relinqueshes
Her sunny vibrant crown.
The scent of mothballs overpowers me
As I wipe away a single tear,
My heart is heavy even as I sigh,
Till we meet again next year.

As we all face trials, we all face troubles
we all face Hurts
at times Ours feels Double


Nice Poem and way to scatter our feelings. so they dont stack up too high, we level them out with words, as we look for hope and strength, These paths we walk, like when Fall is Closing,and A new spring is in store.. this time Sattled with more insite, and wisdom, Than ever before.
