AS SUMMER FADES By the late Eileen Breen March 16, 1916 – May 5, 2006 Poem Number 13 ________________________________________________ AS SUMMER FADES I’ve packed away the blithesome things of summer The pink and navy pants, the buckskin shoes The scented leaf I picked up in Killiney The menu cards, the camera and the views But when again spring steals amongst the by-ways And celandine and primrose will appear With travel pass in hand I’ll head for Dublin And call to you from gate “I’m here, I’m here!” |
