Friday Thoughts

On the last Friday in September

the predawn sky seems darker

as the year draws swiftly to an end.

Only three months left in 2009, it seems like only a couple of months ago we celebrated a New Year. The year is aging time passes quickly. Autumn is here soon harvest begins. I don't have a garden or live close to any farms. My memories of fall and harvest time come from my childhood in Oklahoma.

In the field crops wait

for the arrival of farmers and farmhands

winter approaches.

Those are my thoughts on this last Friday in September 2009.
