september's poems, part one.

9.1.2015

the first of

september

beginning to the

end of summer

everything is 
still green 
with

summer heat

among us all

but at the end

of this month

a crisp will

have arrived as

well as the

start of autumn

the last day of

september

come soon

Fall air has arrived

thanks to the evening rain

I sit in traffic

more backed up than normal

water can slow down cars

who knew?

Water droplets fall from

tree branches onto my car

reminding me why no one is moving

A thirty minute drive

now lasting more than

an hour

I sing badly along to

all the Lana Del Rey songs

I have

Perfect weather for

her music although

I constantly listen to her

Don't know what that

says about me

Another droplet hits

another song begins

still have yet to move

At least it feels like Fall

the taste of 

pumpkin on

my tongue

it takes a

few sips for

my body to

remember

why I love

this drink

so much

friday morning

exhaustion is

all I feel

this latte does

not help it

only tastes good

black cat on the

wood floor looks

up at me

sometime cats truly

are the best company

autumn is gorgeous

but everything is dying

color leaves

brown tress

nature at it's finest

red orange yellow

moments

change out lives

how we walk through life

security with others

today

fourteen years ago

the world we once knew

vanished in one

moment

lives were lost

family members didn't come home

trust was broken

today

we look back

at how our world changed

within a flashing

moment
