...Happy Labor Day...


Poem Artwork

The “unofficial” end of summer for us,

Everybody leaving by car & bus,

The kids don’t want to go, they fuss,

The drivers at each other do cuss…

 

It’s back to school for the kids soon,

For the parents that is a happy boon,

Homes at the shore closed up for season,

No longer needed is the reason…

 

The weather held out for most of the holiday weekend,

Except for this last day, dark & cloudy out there, no sun, the end…

We still have about three more months of summer and hurricane threat, and then it will be spring. You can always go to the coast and watch the nor'easters coming in.

Happy Labor Day to you as well. None of us want to see the summer end up here either. Gotta drag those thermals out again. Ugh!

Love ya!
