Summer Has Left Us

Summer is leaving us,
Fall has begun
I can see it in the leaves and the early setting sun.

Summer is leaving us,
Fall has come
I am no longer scratching mosquito bites and cleaning ants out of the tub.

Oh, she is leaving us, and I am very glad
 but when December comes I shall wish her back.

Summer has left us.
This I know.
I am craving turkey and my skin has lost it's glow.
