Week 38: watching the days get shorter
 
September 15 – September 21
15.
that sound was summer
waving goodbye with bird calls
the squirrels are here
16.
under the blankets
the night air has turned chilly
i am wrapped up tight
17.
spicy soup in bowls
cheese crumbling from fresh baked bread
i feel like a child
18.
shadows cross my path
lengthening in the cool air
the horizon blinds
19.
early signs of frost
breath visible in the air
the damp is crisp now
20.
home in the darkness
the bus lights a welcome sign
nobody dawdles
21.
the fire is blazing
no longer decoration
the world closes in
