change of seasons

we live in a picturesque area at the foot
of the berkshire mountains.
it's peak time for the leaves changing.

i find many folks really like this time of year.

summer is more my cup of tea.
not a fan of cold mornings, or less sunlight.

oh well, new england is known for having 4 seasons.
there is a feeling of renewal with the advent of each.
but alas, after fall comes winter, my least favorite.

snow on christmas is welcome, but after that
it is just an annoyance.

thankfully i travel to arizona in january and
escape the icy roads and frigid temps.

for some of us there can be a season that
challenges our resolve to remain sober;
we witness it at our sober house.

just another reminder that there is NEVER;
a reason or season to pick up.
