Thoughts On September A Poem


It is a new month.
September has been good for
The start of Autumn.
It brings mind
The new year
I did like that
I could start anew.
With new clothes
New hopes for success
In various subjects.
Seeing old friends again
Making new ones.
Seeing if we had changed
But hoping we were
Still on the page.

There are more things
be said about Autumn
The crispness of the air.
The colors that magically appear!
I long for that sight
But also despair that
Once the leaves are gone
The dreaded season of winter
Will come along.

September you are not
you say you are.
You have changed from
Your original meaning of
You have become the ninth month.
A word that is arbitrary in effect
A demarcation that became set
Many moons ago.
We know you now
As of .
Do you like where you lie
In the calendar?
Would you rather be
In the summer?
The point is moot
As you are just a word
With connotations galore.
Thank you for the exercise
That mind explored.

    Quoting jolielaide:
    this left me with a lump in my throat
    reminds me of the song 'september in the rain'. there's a haunting version done by annie lennox that "leaves" me in tears each time i hear it.
    in part it goes . ..

    The leaves of brown came tumbling down
    Remember, in september in the rain
    The sun went out just like a dying ember
    In september in the rain.
    To every word of love I heard, you whisper
    The raindrops seem to play a sweet refrain.
