I used to read Rod McKuen when I was a young hippy with long hair and John Lennon glasses. I came across this poem yesterday and was happy to read Rod again as a much older hippy with bifocals.

Oh my, I too was and remain a McKuen fan! I love this!

Beautiful poem. I think I’ve just entered autumn… Somehow summer went by so quickly. But maybe it hasn’t and it’s just a sneak-peak into autumn so that I’m more able to enjoy summer when it returns.

I love this, and am going to attempt to put it on Twitter—I say ‘attempt’ because I’m learning to work with Twitter, and it’s never a sure thing!
