Includes: How the Year Goes, THE SAD OLD SWING, My Dog
New fall air brightens on my bubbly face as I step outside into the blue It smells clean, as if it had been dormant for a small eternity I enjoy it with my kin as we settle in, with our favorite season before us We kiss summer goodbye We are in a state of bliss when we say hello to our sweaters
As we lie mellow in leaves that are falling around us as we slowly drift away into the breeze
Now we are bawling at loss of fall As winter crawls in Our yards are like little malls although full of the fresh fallen snow It is hard to deal the cards that were dealt but we get along Now, just as I finally feel that I belong in my jacket, a spring in a new direction changes everything Tis now the season to be planting the packets of seeds that makes us all elated I miss all the rest, but there is always Next year

she went to SCHOOL if swings can look sad, then this one did look sad it just hung there; having the worst posture months passed the fall came and went the winter came and went the spring came and went
then one early summer morning when the swing had given up hope the little girl came back she looked different know, older although sat on the swing and smiled then it almost looked like the swing was smiling, too
