Buried Treasure

Summer fades

Into sweet September

With so many special

Scenes to remember .

Laughter, sun 

And a love so tender.

Enjoying new places 

Having fun together. 

So many moments 

Of warmth and pleasure.

The sum of them 

A glowing ember. 

And when days grow short

With changing weather

Which doesn't sparkle 

With equal measure.

These happy hours 

Like buried treasure,

Will be safely stored 

To shine

Forever.
