This is what I wanted to say
Before I fell muttering over sour coffee:
.
On october 19, at sunset,
A bright glow traces the place where summer ends
And the promise of winter begins.
.
Never quite seen then.
Sure, we’ll get the hope, But
Only see how summer has gone woefully stale,
Even wrong.
.
After a few more years,
The rhythm plays loud,
Then, the time will come,
And catch us muttering,
As we look far across the field,
Into the bright October sky.
.
