Notes About The Poem

Hello, September

August has flown south with white pelicans,
             Now here I am alone with you
                        Hello, September;
       I missed you. Don't go anytime soon!

Though still hiding behind Summer's shadow,
      you tinkle my wind chimes fantastically
                     Hello, September;
  you still haven't lost a scintilla of your magic!

  Soon you'll whistle your familiar symphony
                   in the morning breeze
                        Hello, September;
     blow away yesterday's fallen leaves.

Each Autumn, you treat me sweet and gentle,
           cooling my fevered spirit and skin
                         Hello, September;
          you overflow my cup with gratitude!
