The Coming of Summer the Fear of Fall

Listen to poem:
The Coming of Summer The Fear of Fall David J Walker Half-past every euphemism defining The truthfulness of youthful youth or The youthfulness of truthful truth Crumbling behind the chime of clocks And locks of hair lopped off along the way Today is Today is Today Listen for the pitter-patter of Little feet Catching up Spinning calendars Faster Faster Summer is calling A fearful Fall Is all one can count on
