Just That Time of Year

 





AUGUST

 

August is hot;

August is sly.

August comes in

And kills July.

 

August is dry;

August is drear.

August will kick 

You in the rear.

 

August grinds;

August is slow.

Its heat will beat

And lay you low.

 

August is fierce;

August is cruel.

Who likes August

Must be a fool.
