Here Comes Summer!

a poem by Shel Silverstein

Here comes summer,

Here comes summer,

Chirping robin, budding rose.

Here comes summer,

Here comes summer,

Gentle showers, summer clothes.

Here comes summer,

Here comes summer--

Whoosh--shiver--there it goes.

This picture was taken about a week or so ago, on a gloriously warm and sunny day. Since then, I enthusiastically planted my garden, then it snowed, then we got an overnight frost, and my zucchini and marigolds are no more. :( Ah, Springtime!
