"Summer to Fall"

January 14, 2020
By Anonymous

It starts out to be a world of glee

Summertime in the air

Picnics at the park and plenty of sleep

Nothing can compare


Friends and family all stop by

For a vacation with you

Swim in the pool ‘til you’re tired and starved

And have a popsicle or two


The days slip by from June to July

August on the horizon

Summertime is coming to a close 

How does it just happen?


You rush to fit in tryouts for soccer

Along with homework due

Hustling ‘til you’re all stressed out

Fall is coming soon


The leaves are falling one by one

Time is running out

The shivers are running down your spine 

School is starting now

&quot;You&#039;ve got to learn to move on, because life will move on. If you don&#039;t move on, you&#039;ll just end up in over your head.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Never regret anything because at the time, it was exactly what you wanted.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;We accept the love we think we deserve.&quot;
