I think Autumn has fallen
beyond the sun
and is trying to get up
to reach us

the sun
brightly shining
not a cloud in the sky
in October

was the sun not ready
to give up the attention
of shining all alone
for all to see

has sadness pleaded
for the clouds to stay away
to let sunlight bring more joy
into the mood

grab your suits and towels
the sunblock and chairs
and head to the beach
where the sun won’t let go of summer
