How I love September and its golden mellow light,
Still summer in the daytime, but cool and fresh at night.
The days are getting shorter, the nights are drawing in
Birds are off to Africa, the crickets cease to sing.
How I love those memories of going back to school
Seeing all my friends again , having grown so tall
Blackberries, figs and apples, pears and walnuts too
Making lots of jam and pies to see the winter through.
How I love September, it's time to start anew
Join a class and learn a skill you really want to do,
Shall I learn a language? Russian or Chinese?
Or try to do Pilates to help my creaking knees?
All those things you want to learn if you have the chance
Martial Arts or badminton, tennis or Jazz Dance.
September is a magic month, it has a golden hue
Holding hands with summer and giving Autumn a welcome cue.
