School starts in September
They say it's fall, but it's not
New classes, new faces, new everything
Will I make it to October? Maybe
Memorize scores of names for faces
Sisters and brothers from years gone by
Meeting and teaching and surviving
Have we cleared September? Not yet
Clouds roll in and rain comes, too
Temperatures fall and moods improve
Think about hoodies or even light jackets
September is leaving, and true fall is near
Halloween decorations pop at the office
Pumpkin cookies and apple cider appear
That first paycheck in months finally arrives
It's October, my friend. You made it
