Good-bye Good Weather

Good-bye rafting,
Kayaking, and chocolate tang.

Adieu, Shakespeare festival,
And outdoor film going.

Au revoir, aromatic flowers,
And freshly mowed grass.

Until next year, Art in the Park
And Hyde Park Fair.

Arevaderci fresh summer food.

Good-bye spontaneous skinny dipping.

Later, water-skis and wakeboard.

I will miss you, my cruiser.

Adios, margaritas, corona
And unabashedly painting the town red.

Good-bye foothills, our rubber soles
And tires will tread again come spring.

Sayonara summer stoop sitting.

Until next year. Farewell…
