Age is a state of mind

Another birthday is drawing near. I keep hoping they'll just stop, but the passage of time seems a little swifter these days. The seasons travel much faster than they used to, making me scratch my head and say "Whatever happened to Summer?"

But I know where Summer has gone. Like last Winter and Spring, it's irreversibly slipped away. And now my time of year is here. I was born in Autumn and I adore it. Let the daylight leave earlier. Let people complain about the rain and the leaves.

They don't know the beauty of this season...

Except for that birthday thing again.

LOL.
