Half Past Summer, Two Months Till Fall Poetry Contest sponsored by Andrea Dietrich 7/20/25

Warm summer days fly by so fast, cool weather’s lurking in the wings. School holidays they never last, warm summer days fly by so fast Dead foliage will soon whizz past - “Those Autumn Leaves” my grandma sings! Warm summer days fly by so fast, cool weather’s lurking in the wings.

Love the lyrical quality of your triolet, Jan. This might just be one of your best ones. I feel this same way about summer flying by too fast. Congrats in my contest.
