The Equinox Approaches

Shucks.
Everyone's busy now.
Places to go, people to see
Teachers and preachers and doctors and lawyers
Exuding school-year civility.
Me, I prefer lazy summer.
But...
Even amidst the brisk hustle and bustle
Reindeer are grazing.

Wow, Nancy, this is tunning. I love the rapid pace of your poem and really enjoyed your description of the transition from "lazy summer" to "reindeer" grazing. Awesome! Congratulations on your win in Carol's contest! Love, Carolyn
