Happy Transition Day

So what is today for you?

Is it the last day of summer

A day off from work

The day before school begins

or

113 Days until Christmas?

Personally, I don't like this day,

because everything changes.

Pumpkins replace Buckets and Shovels

Bathing suits turn into Sweaters

Barefoot is covered by Ugg boots

Baseball is now Football

Bikes become School buses.

I don't know why I am so weepy,

as I write that last line

I guess because it takes me back

to the past

to not only when I was a child

enjoying summer days and nights,
