Grateful to see another season change
September First
By Franklin Price
9/1/2016
September first is finally here
Hints of Fall are in the air
In our yard I see some color change
On the trees that we have there
The days still reaching ninety
To work outside would be a fool
Enjoy late night and early morn
When the temps are Autumn cool
Storms in the Atlantic
September hurricanes are here
If you live in their projected paths
Protect the things that you hold dear
Officially the twenty-second
Is the day the seasons turn
The days are getting shorter
Less daylight time to burn
If color change is what you seek
Come to the Blue Ridge mountainside
By motorcycle, bike or car
I'm sure you'll enjoy the ride
Use your head to plan the trip
Check the internet and news
Do not be disappointed
In the colored mountain views
If you choose to stay at home
Or to venture on the road
I wish you health and happiness
To be safe in your abode
