Leaving the searing sins of summer behind to take a milder approach
Longer brighter days left begging as the sun setsΒ Β closer and closer to the evening news
Early is still warm but with a cool night, removing an hour will help lighten the load
Home is divided between heating or cooling ,but cuts bills that gives us the blues
Early autumn whispering, green leaves still glistening ,watching the beautiful blossoms erode
Whistling winds no longer as warm, chilly nights more the norm , changing clothing a game of pick & choose
Frequent freezes still blocked by late summer breezes,longer nights mean the day has slowed
Soon dreams of cider and rich apple pies will ring true,switching from salads to hearty stews
Casual shorts & t shirts changed out for long pants & flannel ,not quite ready for those heavy sweaters to be sewed
Final warning to prepare ,wild winters do not care ,first frost means higher cost ,seal all holes ,block all winters air unless you live in an igloo.
Last winters memory lost ,spring also faded ,settling out of summer for the upcoming beauty of Fall and all she will bestow. R.C.
