Watching your words

This is the time of the year I fall.

I get a bit touchy.

In other words I might fly off on anything.

Feel free to correct me.

I will be trying to be silent.

It won't work.

I want to go to sleep in July,

 and wake up in October.

Sadly,

  I don't have that option.

This is my feeble apology.

Hard to fathom that this would be the time of year you want to check out . . . very unusual, I think. Most people live for summer & early autumn. I could personally live without winter, except I sure got a bad hankerin' for rain. Your poem reminds me of when, as a bipolar person, I used to have mood swings that corresponded to time of year *smile* Fondly, Margie

Almost through the worst part, but still feeling the memories.

Interesting approach. Hey, maybe you were Mohammad in a previous life and still waiting for that mountain to come. In any case, it can't be all bad, Whatever your bone of contention, it has inspired your creative side.

Probably more of a Buddha. The feelings are there, so I might as well put them to use!

I am wondering what it is about August and September you don't like Jon. Maybe you have extreme heat where you are, which is suffocating and difficult to deal with? Whatever, you admit that it has an affect on your mood. You don't have to apologise for that my friend.

Rough patch. Lets keep it to these are hard months.

[Chris Shaw]

Then I wish they fly by at speed Jon.

[Jon Roggie]

They will fly with a mix of sorrow and glory,
because all we can do is watch.

This is the kind of stuff which will slip in.

[Chris Shaw]

That sounds very poetic to me

[Jon Roggie]

It is easier to write.
