Good-bye, Hello

Good-bye summer

Good-bye sleeping late and lemon scones

Good-bye long evening suppers and sweet iced tea

Good-bye late night movies and three on a couch

Good-bye brown skin and light dresses

Good-bye walks and talks to wee hours of morn

Good-bye hot nights and bug spray

Good-bye daydreaming and belly laughing

Good-bye summer.

Hello fall

Hello football games and dance classes

Hello well-planned meals and right-on-schedules

Hello old friend memories and new ones too

Hello competitions and out-of-town tourneys

Hello lazy Sundays and much-needed naps

Hello cool nights and warm sweaters

Hello stories galore and hearts full of love

Hello fall.
