It's turned towards Fall, and it's happening Quickly!

Really? We’re really leaving September?
But July’s not yet far behind…
Did we actually experience August?
I must be losing my mind!
I quite clearly remember awaiting
the arrival of Spring yesterday...
I know we left May, but what happened??
It’s not nice messing my mind in this way.
Are you able to enunciate “October?”
Living there just won’t compute!
That the clock speeded its hands ‘round
Is something I’d hardly refute.
Yes, I’ve trouble in leaving September –
Hadn’t this month just begun?
It’s akin to crossing a finish line
Before the race had been run!
