| September Rain by Dimitry Spiros |
I can't bear to see sweet summer go
Summertime slipped away we know
Summer cast off her welcome mat
And September arrived with a spat
With relentless rain we puddled
Through weeks of limpid muddle
We listened to the thunderous sky
Wondering, why did September die?
We limped along against the wet
Never such a season, let's forget
Everyone did their best to survive
Waiting for lusty Autumn to arrive
With yearning, city tress sang a song
Urging autumn leaves to come along
The autumn Equinox, September 21
Brought long days and nights at first
New celebrations, a bright, New Year
We venture forward optimistic to revere
The golden promise of September's story
To bring the orange glow in all its glory
New books, erasers back to school
Back to business, was the golden rule
Yes, September flew by, an angry wind
Screeching and sighing, a bitter fiend
And all good things could vanish in a day
Let's move onto to Autumn without delay!
