Springtime… in September
A time to remember

Unlike Greenday…
we sing
“Wake Us Up When September Comes!”
*
September!
**
Here in Oz
in my family…
September ushers in…
birthdays
holidays
and
Spring!
***
Despite being
a winter baby,
thriving on
chilly mornings
brisk breezes
frosty nights…
even
I
concede…
September
certainly has
her own
allure!
***
She
beckons
the sun!
Persuades
him to
relinquish
his hiding place…
join
in the fun!
****
Flowers, such a bore! galore!
Golden Wattle
Banksia
scarlet Bottlebrush…
wait!
There’s more…
spidery Grevilleas…
such an irresistible
magnet for
cavorting birds,
furry Kangaroo Paws
even Roses, Tulips and more!

*****
Life
emerges
from his chrysalis.
Tests
his fragile wings.
Takes flight…
****
Mr Sun
obliges,
calms
Ms Breeze
with ease.
She
abandons her
spiteful bite,
becomes
surprisingly
more polite.
***
Frigid
ocean waves
warm up,
open their arms
wide…
so that
each
incoming tide,
once again
becomes
mine, to
ride.
Their sandy beach
a playground
which my holidays
long
to reach.
**

Let’s
not neglect,
nor forget,
the birthdays
and parties abound…
families and friends
whose laughter resounds.
*
So…
let’s hear it for…
September!
Celebrate…
Sensational September
and all
she sends…
we hope she
never ends!
