Matinée de Septembre

"September mornings still can make me feel this way." - Neil Diamond, September Morn


"September Morn" by Paul Emile Charbas

For me, the first morning in September always feels like stepping naked - a blank slate - into a lake of infinite possibilities. Looking out to the horizon, I can see a new season approaching; one that promises cooler air, golden squashes, outdoor festivals, cozy fires, and shades of orange beginning to appear everywhere.

The month of my birth, September initiates my season for rebirth and renewal. It ushers in a time of reward, a time to harvest the bounty of the seeds I've planted over the past year.

Welcome September, and all the promise, beauty and hope you hold.

Happy Birthday! Always the beginning of a new year for us, birthday buddy. Driving past harvested wheat fields is bringing this feeling home more than ever. And that it is jeans weather here now. Happy Birthday, hope it is a wonderful year and possibilities become accomplishments! xxoo H
