Monday morning
The work week begins
The last of September
Anticipating fall

October beginnings
Winking an eye
Harvests and beer fests
Soon pumpkin pie

The year winding down
Another one gone
Ice cream and candles
Times Square alive

Here’s to the shadows
Of yesterday’s laughs
And here’s to tomorrow
And future repasts

Open a new book
Turn another page
Beginnings beginning
The story moves on
