I surely do remember When the year in its prime Mid-August~Septmeber How she hated the time Just not enough morning hours Way too much heat and sunshine The disappearance of showers And the humidity combined Then during the September Gales, her fears arose There were as I remember Her many, many throes Colorful the late flowers Drawing butterflies She could not go out that hour Mosquitoes bites besides How beautiful a morning Before the oppressive day's heat And pleasant coos of the mourning Doves, what a wonderful treat She would find a cool chair Beside an airconditioned Vent, while away hours fair Undress~ unpartitioned I surely do remember When the year in its prime Mid-August~ September How she hated the time! Attempted Parody: Edna St. Vincent Millay's "When The Year Grows Old"
