POST MoRTEMs
BY THE MAN IN THE TOWER

Now that summer has come to a close It's no time to mourn the last fading rose It's too late now to have regrets,
 We might as well settle summer debts We must not weep for the trips we didn't take Nor the many contacts we didn't make It's no time now summer cottage to mourn; A garden to hoe, a row or two of corn. Perhaps our vacation wasn't very sunny, Perhaps our summer clothes were sort Of tunny. Maybe the gift shop soaked for that antique lamp, It might have been well to send Junior to camp But summers gone now, it's on its way out, Another seasons on, or just about. Why worry now if the summer went wrong For the most part you got along.
 Down with post mortems, let's be gay and hearty N''N NeeAN W F'"' ~ FEM EM.
