Summer Farewell
Summer Farewell
Warm blood circulating through the labyrinth of veins
Fuels contemplation of time, space, and being,
And rushes the mind with a reflection of freshness,
Encouraging procrastination on leaving.
Put away-finger counting days for seasonal change
And see the frailty of spirit compared to water.
Feel the breeze sweep across the sea and breathe deep the air,
And don’t wish for the panorama to remain dormant.
But say, “Summer, farewell! I enjoy your season
And am thankful to be alive in your presence.”
Tomorrow’s labours will sustain earthly existence,
And summer reminiscence will ease worldly tensions.
