September Sun















Picture by Bill

Heat of August finally subsides
cooling breeze crosses the plains.

Trees release greens of spring
one by one leaves turn to yellow then fall.

School days fill with backpacks and notebooks,
class schedules and new classmates.

Homework, gossip, and karate in the afternoon.
Flip flops, shorts and swim suits put away.

Daylight shrinks between dawn to dusk
Sun in September sets in the west

Goes out like a flame
in the ocean.
