Last Day of Summer

The last morning of summer began slow
Mist wrapped around street lights
Making an early morning haze.
Birds seemed a bit slower to wake
Less anxious to start singing their wake up tunes
Down the road a lonely dog barks once, twice
Then decides this last summer day is a good day
A great day to circle once, twice, three times
And settle back into the cool grass for a nap.
Coffee brewed just like any other day
But folks up early to start a day of farmin'
Looked out the windows and stood
Thinkin' of harvest and crops needin' in.
Last day of summer is a good day
Last day of summer is to be savored
Take a sip and see... mmm sure was good.
