SeptemberA Story by Kathryn SmithI lay motionless in bed I watch the stars from my window sill I say this a lot. Where does the time go? I can't believe it's September already. I'm not a fan of the cold weather but I love the way the leaves change colors. I love the crisp air and the apples that are ripe to eat.
I could never hate the season! Yellow school buses roar by, the harvest bursts, and pumpkins begin to pop up. Fashion evolves and my feet become cold. Coffee and tea warms our bodies head to toe. Everything is never what it seems. The world gets darker. The nights grow longer.
The stars get brighter and the sky is clearer. I can't hang on to the summer heat forever. Without it leaving how would I appreciate it? This is the bliss before winter. The final days of my liveliness. Green is dying with me, but in a beautiful way. Might as well make every moment worth it before the numbing cold.
