September Song

Are you ready?

It’s another September.
And as days get shorter,
It’s more difficult 
To find time.

Then college football begins;
The teams and their records,
The games and the bowls,
The great comebacks 

And overtime wins,
With young men
Dreaming of glory.
And for a few months

You will be distracted and find
Time a little slower,
Dragging its feet.

Each touchdown,
Each point scored,
A celebration of
Another season,
Another year.
