Cool sunless dark morning
Fall scurries in
The pumpkins are already in the stores
The squash is going to be a soup
In this morning
When there are no chirping of the birds
When silence pervades this house
I feed my cats
The past rushes in
Gangbusters
Fall was my opening of the first day of school
Fall the Jewish holidays
Fall, resolutions and promises
I promise to live life fully
To catch the shimmer of light
To stand tall
To be a friend to all
To never be a shadow
To become something more every day
What about You?
