"The final hot, hazy, days of August bring the summer winds, As my thoughts turn to the past and my youth, Then, more than ever, I think of you As September begins" *Joanne* August is closing in on summer's end; My thoughts turn to September, The sky is blue, there's a breeze, And with a smile... I remember. Years of “first days of school” Greeting old, & meeting new, friends. Catching up on their lives And lamenting the summer’s end. Looking at all the school cloths When I walk into a store- Takes me back in years To my childhood once more. I see faces long gone Some never forgotten. School days… gone forever Some memories misbegotten. After all these years, I still Look forward to September. I didn’t know it at the time, How much this season would mean to me. Looking back I can see Why I feel reborn each September and why It's the favorite time of year for me.
