Goodbye Summer

Goodbye Summer
thank you for spending 
another glorious year here with us
I wish you never had to end
it seemed like just yesterday
when the calendar was set to June 22nd 
but now the time is racing 
closer and closer to the end of August
where the winter solstice is drawing near


I will truly miss those 
spectacular days and weeks
soaking up the sun
playing in the aqua park
on Blue Lagoon Island
and jamming to summer tunes
on my radio set to Island FM
but most of all I will miss you
for those late night sunsets
as if God left in a flashlight in the clouds

All though I do look forward 
to Fall, Winter and Spring
but summer is the season 
I look forward to seeing most

Spoken from the heart I can tell, Mia! Everything good must end, but there are plenty of good things waiting to begin.
