September is surrounded by a bittersweet blend of orange, yellow, and gold. Wakes to the sound of lingering birds. Takes a last chance for a barefoot beach walk. Feels the hot sun mixing with the cool sand. Smells the morning glory. Jumps into a pile of color–changing leaves. Trades tank tops for tee shirts. Plants a tree. Celebrates Indian Summer. Dances in a garden. Drives with the windows down. Smells the salt air. Heads back to school! Makes tomato soup. Eats carrot cake. Stocks up on apples. Drinks apple cider. Watches a football game. Thinks positive. Captures life’s sweetest moments. Touches the soft mist. Sleeps beneath the stars. Lives by heart. Leads the way toward October…
