Too Soon - September 2015 - NorthernShy
My face fell when I saw the yellow leaf that had fallen from
the tree. Looking at the calendar, I
realized that fall falls on a Wednesday this year – Wednesday of next
week. Summer is falling behind fall and
fall will soon fall behind winter. Soon
our city of summer dreams and autumn wishes will be felled by the
snowfall. As the late summer sun falls
upon the fallen leaf, I fall back in my chair and I smile, remembering that
even though the calendar on the wall shows that we have so much time, the clock
doesn’t always play along. I fall for
this little joke every fall.
