Autumn

There is a time in a man's life that they become aware of something special. My heart feels a little sadness at the coming days. It seems to me my mind has perceived a change of the seasons, where one's mind comes from the old days of summer into the new days of autumn. This change may be greater still because I had always been a student of Fall and soon I will be earning a living. The days of summer are always too short, and as the day grows heavier the nights grow longer. This time of the year is when we begin to realize another has passed, the calendar is growing to include a New Year, when we reflect on the year past and hope for the year to come. However, this reflection is long away and the end of summer is already near. For now I will just enjoy the change, the slowing down, until I have grown another year and it begins turning back to Spring.
