September
by Sharmagne Leland-St.John

The summer house
On Mystic Lake
Where the forest meets the stars
The scent of pine fills the air

Early one morning
September girls
Dressed to kill
Promenade

Beach music
Echoes
Storm clouds rolling in
The end of summer
The empty house

Come sundown
Echoes fade
A night to remember
Every summer after
