Changing of the Guard

8.25.2008


Yes dear, we had lots of fun.
Many wonderful days of sun.
But now I'm putting you away
Your time will come again some day.

Can't say I'm sorry to see you go
That is...until my skin begins to glow
From being so lilly white
That I glow even in the night.

And I say this every year.
That the next time I draw you near.
I hope you are too large
And I'm not as big as a barge.

You and me girl, we'll meet again.
But have fun under the bed 'til then.
Tucked away in the plastic bin.
'Til summer comes again.

No! Say it isn't so. September and October are the best months here. I was hoping you and your sweet family would make another trip down this year.

Laughing out loud at the barge comment!!! And from your cute pic in the apron, your more the size of a life raft than a barge anyway!! So cute!!

Love the suit, too! I am wearing a dress that color to a wedding at the beach soon!

Linda :

You are too funny! I'm never sad to see my suit go just the weather in which I can wear the suit.
Blessings,
Linda

So sad! Cute post. I'm keeping my suit out for a couple more weekends. Lake and pool visits. Then it's goodbye here in N.C., too!

Yes, unfortunately, my legs still look like Casper's (the friendly ghost) even though I have been swimming all summer. I guess I get to "glow" year round.

Love the poem!
