Fond Memories

The sun came out this late Fall day
   The sky not blue but hazy
It didn't matter anyway
   The feeling's summer-lazy

Fresh smiles appeared on people's faces
   Their winter hats and coats removed
The grass still green in open spaces
   Folks young and old, their mood improved

Too quickly did the day wind down
   Too early did the sun set
And yet fond memories can be found
   Whose appetite for more whets
