The Sun Says “Hurry Up” and Other Fall Thoughts
I’m going to share a little old and a little new today. In November of 2014 I wrote:
AUTUMN PLAYS TRICKS WITH TIME
Waking moments are fewer
The sun says “Hurry up” while
The wind pushes us along and
I swear time moves faster by
Taunting my to-do lists and
My goal sheets
Each minute holds the seconds more loosely than the last
And they fall away quickly like the leaves that desert the trees
Then swirl along the ground
Warning of the darkness beckoning as
The year readies to close its eyes and then
In a moment’s blink
A New Year wakes and we begin again.
