Yet...

 Have you noticed

...how much earlier Day is turning in?!

But, it isn't time to say farewell to summer...yet.

Isn't 'yet' one of the most happy-sad words in the English vocabulary?!

(depending on what it is hinged to)

It suggests there is still more to come!

 I have not had my second coffee...yet

“Isn't it nice to think that tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it... yet?”
― L.M. Montgomery

I can’t bear the thought of it…yet

The way Past keeps moving in

Mapping moments, happy, haunting

To primed canvases of skin

I can’t think about farewell…yet

The way Time tugs at the heart

Twisting touch and taste to echoes

Where soon three seasons apart

...summer will be heaped and gathered

Death, a leafless silhouette

Etched upon the early twilight

I can’t think about it…yet
