Fall Rhyme

Leaves are falling,
Fall is calling.
The sun is crawling
back to the place it goes each year.

Black cats creep the fence lines,
the moon’s time to shine.
Costumed kids in ragged lines.
Feels like candy time!

SHARING STORIES is a weekly column for and about the 50 plus crowd living in the Puget Sound region. Send your stories and photos to ariele@comcast.net. Tell local or personal stories; discuss concerns around aging and other issues; share solutions, good luck, and reasons to celebrate; poems are fine too. Pieces may be edited or excerpted. We reserve the right to select among pieces. Photos are always a plus and a one-sentence bio is requested (where you live, maybe age or career, retired status, etc.).
