Three-Quarters

Three-quarters of a year is gone For (snap your fingers), just like that! September will, by morrow’s dawn, Roll up and store the welcome mat. October’s waiting in the wings, Her pumpkins all prepared to go, As autumn strides, with all it brings, To set the foliage aglow. Since Nature’s rules we must obey, We’ll flip the calendar once more And fill those boxes on display With all the plans we have in store.

A perpetual change of time. It's not a thief and it's not a crime. When we release our grip, it's always prime.

I enjoy this look forward. I am more focused in Fall and Winter than I am in warm months.

The seasons are passing too quickly. It seems to happen that way when we get older. I always appreciate your poetry, Ilene.
