A Poem for September
This erstwhile seventh month of the year
Now shunted into the autumn season,
(Depending of course on your hemisphere),
Is the ninth month for a worthy reason.
A time of crisp mornings and warm middays,
When nature is betwixt and between;
Farmers prepare to harvest maize
And leaves begin to turn from green.
This is the month of the equinox
When light and dark achieve parity
Some shops prepare their Christmas stocks
For an early show of vulgarity.
M. Waller
