Shades of pink, orange and purple

flood the sky.

The wind blows slightly as it makes

ripples in the lake.

The sun faints behind the trees,

as the moon

comes to substitute in the suns place on the sky.

The stars keep it company,

as they glow in the dark night.

Bugs and insects come out to play when they hear,

the moon is here to stay.

The Sun recovers and comes back to work,

It's over!

Our precious time is over!

We laughed,

We cried.

We played,

We got bored,

And now it's over.

It went by so quickly,

It flew like the wind,

And now all we have are memories.

It's over, it's over,

Our sweet, sweet summer is over.

The months have passed

for every childs favorite time of year.

Now trying to enjoy their last few days of summer,

Without thinking of the school year ahead of them.

At night while trying to go to sleep,

school and homework are on their minds.

Pretty soon they wake up to an alarm clock.

They push the off button and roll over,

Through the

open cracks,

soft colors of

red, yellow and orange

seep through

untouched

clouds.

The horizon

is filled with

creative colors.

Above on the

zenith,

are dark

grey

clouds

surrunding

me like

a prisoner.

The reds, yellows
