There was a distinct hint of autumn yesterday morning whilst watching the boys swim at my Momma’s and again in this morning’s cooler temps.  Summer is slipping away and I realize that there are so many things yet that I want to do…

…and ALL very easily achieved.  Thank you, Dear Lord for all my many, many blessings.

       Bed in Summer

In winter I get up at night
And dress by yellow candle-light.
In summer quite the other way,
I have to go to bed by day.
I have to go to bed and see
The birds still hopping on the tree,
Or hear the grown-up people’s feet
Still going past me in the street.
And does it not seem hard to you,
When all the sky is clear and blue,
And I should like so much to play,
To have to go to bed by day?
