As summer wanes for another year
And evensong all but lingers here
Blackbird sings his peaceful tune
An echo of spring times news
The trees grow heavy with their wares
And soon will drop what once was theirs
Followed closely by coloured leaves
Printed reminders of natures scenes
Then autumnal days come at last
Collecting up what has been cast
All efforts grown are put to bed
As summer rests her weary head
Blackbird still sings his dutiful song
Telling us that summer\'s gone
But also to remind us all
That after winter spring time calls
So I listen in comfort as I go walking by
To blackbirds song as it fills the sky
And wrap myself in his soulful tune
Longing for the sound of my spring time muse
