Notes About The Poem

3rd in September Sestet Contest (Sponsor: Andrea Deitrich)

Tropical September

At the September dance
Girls select their playdates
Caribbean weather
Threatens downpours and fires
Children grow impatient
Waiting for winter break

Appreciated. I do. I'm a Caribbean native, specifically from Barbados - home of Rihanna and rum.
