'Tis the end of August

Oh, August, bittersweet harbinger of change,
As your days wane, a lament fills the air,
Whispering of fleeting moments, so strange,
As summer's warmth yields to autumn's care.

In your embrace, we found solace and delight,
Beneath the sun's golden, unforgiving gaze,
But now, your fading light casts shadows, so slight,
As memories linger in hazy, wistful haze.

Gone are the lazy days of endless sun,
When time seemed to stretch to infinity's bend,
Now, like sand slipping through fingers, undone,
We mourn the season's swift and sorrowful end.

The air grows cooler, the nights grow long,
As whispers of change dance on the breeze,
Leaves tremble, preparing for their final song,
As nature surrenders to fall's gentle ease.

Oh, August, how we mourn your passing grace,
As summer's splendour fades into the past,
But in your memory, we find a sacred place,
A fleeting moment, too beautiful to last.

So, let us bid farewell with hearts heavy yet light,
For though you depart, your spirit remains,
In memories cherished, in moments bright,
Until we meet again, in distant summer's reigns.
