Birds are happier in
September
Trilling jubilantly
the grand finale of summer
The entrance of fall
Skies are a deeper saphire
blue in September
Contrasting against
the emerald and indigo leaves
The aquamarine of the
Spruces
Blooms are fuller in
September
Pink petunias and lime green sweet potatoes
cascading over flower boxes
Cheerful sunflowers shine
like the sun’s bright rays
With cooler days and
crisper nights
They frolic and hide
under the tents of the Virginia Creeper
Foods are tastier in
September
Home grown tomatoes with
salt and pepper the juices dripping down chins
The blush of fresh
peaches in pies with soft whirls of cream on top like a white crown
Even stars stand out
more brilliantly in the night sky in September
Cassiopeia and Libras
scales
Perfectly balancing
the change of the seasons
