Summer

One expects the calendar
To never misbehave.
That seasons follow seasons
With moods that pave the way
For moons to shrink and grow
So tides will ebb and flow
And that the Ides of March
Will always know their place.
But something‘s gone awry
And summer lost its way
Instead of six and twenty one
We skipped the month of May
Cause summer came in April
With golden rays of sun
Now the days get hotter with
Each rising of the sun
Throughout July and August
Until Indian summer comes
To bring a breath of coolness
Will summer’s heat be gone
