The Final Days of Summer!

What a fun summer we have had! From Family reunions, Camping in our trailer, Swimming, Barbeques etc... It has definately been eventful and fun. I Remember as a little girl Summer lasted forever. Now it seems everyday is getting shorter and life is passing by so quickly. Anyone that knows me knows I love poems. I read this one just recently and thought it to be fitting for this season of my life. Poem THE END OF SUMMER The summer days are fading, as they must From endless hours to short and fleeting light The bird's once bright, immortal tune, now cries A melancholy aura to the dusk The children fiercely climb, and dream, and race Before their wild and unchained days depart And yet beneath the zeal lies a half heart For there isn't time, there's only enough space The sun seems low, a hazy orange sphere Now reminiscing sweetly of the days When endlessly before you summer lay And as in the deep, crimson dusk you stir Your soul joins with the birds in wistful brood Crying for lost summer days, for childhood Author:Shannon Georgia Schaubroeck, USA I loved my childhood-- Thanks Mom and Dad. Now I love seeing in Cam those little moments of "child play" that I miss but remember through him. I love being a mom and seeing such pure joy and love in him. Bren and I have had a fun summer and look forward to the fun days ahead. Thanks for everyone who planned and helped with these family vacations/reunions and get togethers. We love you all and want you to know we are so thankful for each of you. Love Bren and Ali
