The first day of Autumn..

Trying to revive my muse.

First day of Autumn. 

1- The warm days of Summer are holding on. The grandchildren want to swim in Lake St. Clair and to enjoy the warm days of Autumn. The leave are turning and Halloween is coming. The kind days of September. I do love.

2- I have learn. Life is like the four seasons. We must survive Winter and re-plant new flowers into the Spring soil. Life is lesson and more lessons. Today I remember my grandfather words. Please Johnnie, lead with concern, kindness and love.

Yes dear John, the "warm day of summer are hanging on"... so tight it barely feels like fall, but it is!!! i like the way you composed this poem in two parts...how wonderful it is for the grand kids, etc and part two is about learning the change of seasons and adjusting to them; and what you learned about kindness and love from you grandfather. Nice write my friend....
Warmly, B

Here's wishing you many more seasons of peace, joy and beauty to watch the falling leaves or the blossoming cherry trees. I enjoyed the read, F.

Seasons of life on many levels, young and old, spring and fall, naive and wise, all circular and reoccuring a nice thought and piece Johnnie

You make a good point, C. Life has its seasons that come and go and then repeat in the next year. It is more like a circle than a straight line, which has a beginning, middle and end and that's it. The seasons are one way life has of telling us it's eternal.

I agree my friend. Thank you for reading and the comment.
