Autumn
~by Laurie Kolp

In high school autumn
Was football games
And playing snare drum

In college autumn
Was still football games
Yell practice, bonfire and chum

In my twenties autumn
Was teaching a new class
To learn to read with wisdom

In my thirties autumn
Was newborn babies
Nursing, diapers, feeling numb

In my forties autumn
Is back to school for my kids
Halloween, Thanksgiving to come
