September arrives and Autumn begins. <br />The Summer then bows to Fall. <br />I use to think, <br />The leaves would cling on until Spring... <br />In New England. <br /> <br />September arrives, <br />And the sky loses brightness. <br />Winds start to whip... <br />Leaves off of trees. <br />I use to wonder, <br />Why I heard thundering... <br />As it rained to bring a change to things. <br /> <br />September seems erratic and dramatic. <br />Shifting as it does... <br />To prepare all for the Winter. <br />Children return to school, <br />As cool winds descend. <br />September has come back, <br />Again... <br />So quickly. <br /> <br />September arrives, <br />And Autumn begins. <br />The Summer then bows to Fall. <br />I use to think, <br />The leaves would cling on until Spring... <br />In New England. <br /> <br />I use to think, <br />The leaves would cling on until Spring... <br />When September arrived. <br />And Autumn began, <br />With winds again. <br /> <br />I use to think, <br />The leaves would cling on until Spring... <br />As Autumn began, <br />With winds again to begin. <br />When September arrived. <br />When September... <br />Arrived! <br />When September, <br />Arrives... <br />Again.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
