Encroaching end of summer

Been blistering hot
Outdoor activities checked
Stragglers on the beach

Some misty mornings
Low chirping of restless birds
Calls of shorter days

Bathed in copper tones
Changing colors set the mood
Abandoned downwards

    Slightly cool days are welcomed after lots of heat

    Very well written and described Hank. Living on the coast this verse I could relate to.

    The birds certainly know when the shorter days are coming, don't they?
