Good Bye Summer Holidays!
We’ll Miss You Summer holidays
Dear Summer Holidays, You did not judge us
when we stayed in our pj’s all day
If we stayed up and watched movies until after midnight
If we ate lunch at 3pm and tea at 8.30pm it just did not matter
You allowed us to be spontaneous, drop everything and go for a picnic or go to the seaside just to go for a paddle
You were generous with the weather and gave us some lovely summer sun
You did not chastise us for going to bed late and sleeping in even later
You helped us spend quality family time together and enjoy each others company
You gave us the chance to create a scrapbook full of memories with all our adventures
You taught us how to relax and laugh together over even the smallest and silliest of things
You also allowed us to have our individual own time where we just got on with what we needed or wanted to do.
You kindly put on hold Ironing School uniform and making those pesky packed lunches, this I was grateful for
Even with the lows and the highs of the Pirate ship ride at Lightwater Valley, We forgive you
The biggest thing you allowed me to do was be more of a mum, a more relaxed, recharged and better version of me
Thanks Summer holidays, you have given us good times, great times and fantabulous times
Just don’t rush away so quickly next time!

That is a lovely poem and I am sure so many people will agree with you x
I used to love the summer holidays and they seen=med to go on forever as a kid. Now I’m older time seems to be whizzing by.
This is so lovely – it is like you are writing a goodbye letter to summer. So bittersweet and beautiful. Thank you so much for linking to Prose for Thought 🙂 x
Love how you’ve dedicated this to the Summer holidays. You certainly had a lot of things to do and have made some lovely memories x
I love the summer holidays, as I work from home I get to spend lots of time with my girls and miss them now they are back to school x
Love this poem – the summer is such a lovely time and I am always a little sad too when it ends. Sounds like you had a wonderful summer and what a lovely way to sum it up 🙂
I love this, it sums up summer perfectly and the feeling of saying goodbye to the good times. Glad you had such a good time.
amazing poem,i admit i will miss the summer-but it has to be said that i LOVE winter,cosy nights in front of the fire,getting all togged up in winter clothes and if we’re lucky enough to get some-lots of crisp white snow 🙂 xx
This is so true and is reassuring to me to discover that the holidays retain some of their magic even as they get older! #PoCoLo
Sweet poem! I’m still happy school has started though lol. Shared it on fb x
great poem, so glad school is back
To cheer you up, here’s a little ditty about Autumn. xx
Hello Autumn, you’re all golden and blowy
at least you’re not Winter, all freezing and snowy.
The sky is blue and the air is fresh
sadly the kids are all at creche.
The gorgeous summer may have seemed like a dream
but never fear, it’s soon Halloween!
