The days pass quickly
even as they grow shorter,
daylight slipping away so soon
into nighttime’s cooler
temperatures.
This is the season of reflection.
Caught unaware and unprepared,
I look backwards, wondering
where the time has gone,
these summer months passing now
into autumn; and in the passing
of these days growing shorter,
I am reflected, too, slowing and
still,
readying my life for the winter
months ahead.
