Half Past Summer, Two Months Till Fall
Twigs and dried leaves talk timeless tales cuddling together.
Parrot pandemonium camouflage under fading flowers
I've witnessed seasonal cycles. Is the deep calling me?

Half Past Summer, Two Months Till Fall
Summer is a time of wanderlust and fun with long days and warm nights
A season to enjoy the outdoors as we cultivate our many gardens of life
The days are now getting shorter as nature slowly starts to rest into slumber
Hummingbirds take their last sip of nectar before their fall departure
Leaves start to transform from

less sun, more moon as night time grows
seasons change as all things must
where did time go? Heaven knows
the stars give signs, much to tell us
be still, as nature all around us flows

Half Past Summer, Two Months Till Fall Poetry Contest
Warm summer days fly by so fast,
cool weather’s lurking in the wings.
School holidays they never last,
warm summer days fly by so fast
Dead foliage will soon whizz past -
“Those Autumn Leaves” my grandma sings!
Warm summer days fly by so fast,
cool weather’s lurking in the wings.

Half past summer, two months till fall
Leaves are still green, sun shining bold
Flowers still bloom, and birds still call
Half past summer, two months till fall
Visions of Fall, dressed in her shawl
Her breath swirls the leaves, turns them gold
Half past summer, two months till fall
Leaves are still

Half Past Summer, Two Months Till Fall
They quickly pass, the waning days more brief,
like love once shied beneath a garish moon,
expose the truths betrayed by Autumn's thief.
Infatuation always ends too soon ~
still tethered to the oak, a hopeful leaf...

Half Past Summer, Two Months Till Fall
King Sol is stealing all my energy.
There’s no relief in sight, forecasters say.
Come, clouds, with brief relief; this is my plea.
While summer lovers bask in heat each day,
I’ll dream of fall and trust in my AC.

Half Past Summer- Two Months Till Fall
After the scorching days and sultry nights,
We are in the cusp between summer and autumn.
Days have grown cooler with nights longer.
Nature, getting ready for the ceremonious Fall.
A sweet change is in the air everywhere.
Trees will soon waltz in cascading colours.
With goodbye kisses, as leaves spiral down in graceful twirl,
We will tell- 'We are in autumn’s

It’s still summer time now!
But it will end soon.
When Fall comes, sun is low.
There will still be sun and moon.
Leaves from trees fell slow.

Half Past Summer, Two Months Till Fall
How could I ignore the dance of a leaf
Cascading with warm summer brushed in gold--
Lovers tasting the quiet of relief
A contentment lit amidst north-winds cold…
And autumn comes...its charm and flair too brief!

Actually a third of summer has passed, two and
a half months to go till fall to enjoy the long warm
daylight and the summer fun. Why think of fall?
With hot weather cooled by the summer breeze, people are
having fun in the sun and under the moonlight, from

Foam squishes between all my toes.
Feet tingle, warm sand, water laps.
