Summer Is Leaving Us

The beautiful days spent under bright sunshine are getting shorter; clouds change from white to pink and travel far. Summer is leaving us and seeing us sad, they linger a bit longer to suddenly disappear into specks of light that later will become stars, and staring at them with childish eyes, we'll dream of nightly twinkling skies! Summer is leaving us in a whirlwind; can we stop time from escaping, from slowing down its rush with a strong plead? No, we must taste the bitterness in a goodbye of a season so delightful and pleasing, so loved on those butterfly-chasing afternoons: barefoot and delirious running on sand dunes... before we fell down and started kissing!
