GOODBYE SUMMER

The season nearly three months
ago we hailed as the "Good old Sum.
mer Time" has crystalized into a me-
mory that glorifies with the compel
ing touch of ends attained and hopes
achieved or shrivels and blisters un-
der the scourge of failure
It came out of the eastern dawn,
this dead and gone summer, with
roses and bird-song, laughter and
love, and it is slipping over the
western horizon empty handed, for
one by one it had dropped it's treas
ures as It journeyed, and some OF
us caught the roses, and some. thorns
and learned the bird-song, and some
the empty nest. Some OF us saw It
60 without regret, nay. even with
relief, and some of us held yearning-
ly and tenaciously to its last golden
hours.
Some of us will cover its exit
with the lilies of gladness, and some
will hide its footprints under the
rue OF broken hearts.
All that is left of it now is the
paling glow Of the aftermath, the
reflected radiance OF what was SO
recently a splendor of sunshine ana
rainbow tinted blossoms. Impartial
II It gave Of it's warmth. its color, it's
perfume, its purple vintage; but with
an all too uneven balance did It
weigh it's favours of joys and hopes,
and happiness. But what is done, is
done: and whether we have bound
10 full sheaves of its golden grain
or been only cleaners in the rined
(ields. We look back today and say
with q touch of sadness that always
comes with finality, good bye old
good bye.
Lola Lee. write on, laugh and sing
-'tis the life-blood from the broken
heart OF summer that is almost dead
write on:
Sweet are the roses in summertime,
Sweet are the roses in May;
But the rose Of my heart. my lady
love,
Ia sweeter than they any day.
The rose is sweetest when wet with
dew;
Her eyes are sweetest when wet with
tears.
Would were the one to kiss them
away
rhrough all the coHing years.
