As summer duly ends
thoughts of fun-filled leisure
still linger in my heart
laughter, joy, fellowship
one longs for at the start

As summer duly ends
the playful child within
dwells on sunshine capers
deep green  tides, sandcastles
awestruck blue sky gapers

As summer duly ends
its pearl clad fair journey
encased inside a log
of gleaming shore elan
to dissipate the fog

As summer duly ends
autumn, winter, christmas
will shortly grace our door
with bright leafs, gusts, snowfall
to relish even more

A lover of winter weather so it seems. I like the descriptiveness, rhythm, and rhyme in this one. I am glad that I chose it to read today. Your visit to my page was encouraging. Sara K

Poem is happy at any season. This positive looking ahead is gentle and relaxing. I enjoyed the childhood descriptions. Ocean beaches seem to signal beginnings.
