Poster Comment: Last of the Summer Wine was one of my favorite shows. And, iirc, the longest running show of its kind on television (started in 1973 I think and ended in 2008). For those who may never have seen the show I would encourage you to check out some of the videos on youtube.

The last of the summer wine The memories of summers gone The misty haze of golden days The last of the summer wine We laughed and loved--maybe too well Though shadows grow longer now Now grapes are few upon the vine Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end. He (Gordon Duff) also implies that forcibly removing Obama, a Constitution-hating, on-the-down-low, crackhead Communist, is an attack on America, Mom, and apple pie. I swear these military people are worse than useless. Just look around at the condition of the country and tell me if they have fulfilled their oaths to protect the nation from all enemies foreign and domestic.
The blossom soon begins to fade
A lonely bird high on a hill sings,
Autumn's on its way
like passing shadows cross my mind
Reflections of the yesterdays
that made our summer wine
when we were young
That heady joy of finding love
and love passing on
The sweet bouquet of memories
when days were long and nights so warm
I still remember these
The best laid-plans of yours and mine
got left behind, time went too fast
Just like our summer wine
leaves start to fall
I still feel the warmth of your touch
But most of all, this cup of life of ours we drank
so let us toast the vintage years
the last of our summer wine
and always remember this,
the promise that I made to you
This summer wine of ours my love
will last our whole lives through. 
Lord Acton
