Summer is Dead

Summer is Dead

A Poem by James Takeo Panton
"

It's time to go...

"

The leaves are now changing
To gold and to red
Falling to pavement
Summer is dead
Warm days not as long now
Colder nights grow fast
Times are now changing
This season does not last
Like a lover who’s gone
And left the bed cold
I feel so detached
I feel so old
My birthday soon comes
And with it, my dread
Autumn is here now
Summer is dead
I dreamt of beaches
And long days in the sun
But now I must go
And my time is done
Return to something
But what, I don’t know
The time fast approaches
The time I must go
All that’s been done
All that’s been said
Those times are over
Summer is dead

This does read very sad, like you're mourning.......its amazing to make others feel your pain like you have here. I personally love Autumn so much so that I have an arm piece dedicated to it, oriental waves and autumn leaves. I cant wait to have it finished!

Its great to have found someone who loves both of my loves :)
