The leaves are changing
And so are we

Summer is passed
And the things we have done
Have become
Memories

The trees
Stand quietly
Reminders of more abundant times

But the air has changed
And coats are being drawn from cupboards

It feels like now we should grieve
For the times when we were
Just relaxing together

Fresh challenges lie ahead
Who knows what they will be?
They must be tackled
Endured
Experienced
Overcome

But for just a moment
I will taste the nostalgia
Of all that has passed
