This Song the "summer winds" describes my summer very well. It tells you that summer fells like its going to last forever and then you blink and its gone. To me summer is like little grains of sand slipping through my fingers and there are less and less and then its gone, and that song describes my feelings very well.

TS The summer “came blowin’ in from across the sea,” and it left just as fast. SD Once summer started it felt like it would never end, then the clock started ticking, slowly trip by trip, summer started to vanish. CM The summer winds took me over the Atlantic sea from island to island.CM I spent my summer on beautiful islands like Martha’s Vineyard and Block Island. SD Although, those August days and nights went flying by, “like a painted kite in the sky, they are still vivid in my memory.” CM The wind blew me to bon fires and to nights with smores, trips to the "secret beach" on Fisher’s Island and long boat rides around Martha’s Vineyard. CM I don’t think I could have had a better summer if I had tryed.SD Unfortunately, September and school kept creeping around the corner, each day getting closer and closer. CM I tried to push it to the back of my head, but all of the homework to come got me nervous for eight grade. CM When it came to the last days of summer reality started to kick in. CS "Mmm the summer wind" I could still feel it blow by me just as fast as the days of summer went by.

In conclustion the summer wind came and went as fast a grains of sand slipping through your fingers. Although summers over and were back at school there will be another summer and another year of school always follows it. Like a gust of wind carrying you through life.
