Still Summer

This summer has been swift in its journey, so hopeful in mood over the past several weeks that I don’t want it to be over just yet. Even with school beginning here in a couple of days, it doesn’t feel like the end of summer. The fall equinox is still a few weeks away, so I feel justified in declaring that summer isn’t done yet.
