I'd like to call back summertime...

Beechwood Cemetery

This photo was taken in early September when summer was already fading, and now it seems summer came and went in the blink of an eye. The lyrics from Joni Mitchell's wonderful song "Urge for going" really resonated: "I'd like to call back summertime..." Here's a link to a very, very young Joni singing the song on the old Oscar Brand show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3EofN3Flag Sound quality is not the greatest but it is a classic. The song sounds better here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvSvTRhAJxg

I can understand this sentiment, although we are just going into Summer. This is such a lovely image with Joni's words added. A greeting card for sure, Christine. V

A poignant and beautiful tribute to summer's passing. Such a beautiful butterfly and flowers. I wish I could fly south or hibernate for the next six months. V.

Such a pretty shot and perfect lyric. Summer always seems fleeting, but I'm sure you agree that if it lasted all year it wouldn't be as special.

I echo your sentiment and of that of Joni's here. But listening to my idol goes a long way for making up that season's loss - so thanks for the beautiful link :)
