Go ahead Day, go and get up
Would you care if I stay behind, please?
My muscles are stiff, head’s stone heavy
Must be Autumns gift I’ve received

Damp air lays thick, as his statement he makes,
He’s bullied dear Summer away
He’s covered the sun, pre frosted the trees,
While here in my bed, wrapped up I lay

Warmths been pulled out of my body,
Replaced with a feverish chill
No sigh of joy comes from my mouth,
Instead goes in hot tea and pills

Tricky, tricky, yes you are,
Even Birds not sure they’d stay
One flew North as six went South,
Confused on this Fall day

Flowers opened just to fold,
Somewhat just like me
With hope, but knowing, that we’ve seen
Our Summers grand finale

And so it goes, time to greet yet another season! To adjust clocks and clothes, and for me, to load up the medicine cabinet 😉
