Oh! What a bummer!
The last of the summer
The sun smiles with a final glimmer
There goes the summer charmer
Winter sneaks in like a new comer
While I, the dreamer will focus only on the former
Oh! What a bummer!
The last of the summer
The weather deceptively seems warmer
Amongst those not led on are the farmers
Leaves blossom on but not for long
Winds stay calmer and in time blow strong
Shorter days and longer nights
The last of the summer is my plight
Forgotten roses and barren trees
The missing buzz of the bumble bee
The last of the summer is about to flee
Smiling cheerful faces and beautiful places
And away goes the usual beach craze
Until the sun decides to resurface
The last of the summer has ended its race
Oh! What a bummer!
It is the last of the summer
