The long hot summer draws to a close
the nights draw in as winter approaches
thus ends my final summer in this place
the colonial country of my birth my homeland.
Shadows shifting the final Easter here I promised
my parents will soon be departure time upon us.
Echo of champagne cock echo into eternity.
