Paula Goldsmith Poet Free verse

When Summer Is Gone

It is time to get back to school,
seeing all our missed friends.
Closet cleaning and shopping,
we need some warmer clothes.
The beach and pool have been,
sent on a vacation.
The cookouts are all gone,
being replace with holiday eats.
This is what happens,
when summer is gone.
Do not fret,
summer will return in all it's glory.
