And smart skirts and blouses
Pity Summer is over so soon

Infant Sorrow By William Blake ( ) My mother groan’d! my father wept. Into the dangerous world I lept: Helpless, naked, piping loud: Like a fiend hid in a cloud. Struggling in my father’s hands, Striving against my swaddling bands. Bound and weary, I thought best To sulk upon my mother’s breast.
