Born In The Dawn Of August

August 12, 2022

If you were born in the month of August

Be cool, be calm, be wise and be robust

Summertime is almost over

And autumn is around the corner

Teeny or feeble leaves are falling

Some days are hot or humid like spring

Yellow tiny bugs are crawling everywhere

As customary, the hot summer rays failed

To obliterate quite a few. This is no fairy tale

Let’s wish everyone born in the dawn of August

Many Happy Birthdays. Let’s single out no one

Be cool, be calm, be wise and be robust

Love will remain in the air for everyone

To enjoy the very end of summer

In the name of the Savior.
