Please come in Madam Fall I thought I heard you knock. I'm sorry you missed Mrs.Summer She is hardly down the block. This is such a grand surprise That you are calling on me. But I have the guest room ready. For your visit, as you see. Mrs. Summer was so tidy, That I didn't have much to do, To get it all in readiness For my next guest, which is you. Past experience has taught me, You're a temperamental guest, But I know no one is lovelier Than you are at your best. So please come in Madam Fall And prepare to stay a while. I have asked all of the colors, To come out to make you smile. You can help me greet my litttle friends, When Halloween knocks on my gate. And I'll promise to hold a Thanksgiving feast, If you will stay so late. But if you insist that you must go, I'll bid you sad adieu And I'll overlook your few tantrums, For the good times that we knew. By Joyce 9/25/01 |

This is so well done. I love it. (I don't love fall though, I hate to see my beloved summer go away). Great write If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

When she leaves your home, send her up to mine, thank you. I really liked this one, and am waiting to see what you will do with Ms. Winter...(Ms. Freezer?) |

Joyce, Ah yes...she is very tempermental. But I guess that's why I love her visits best. This was great, as always! Thanks for the enjoyable read... ~~Jamie ![]() "There's something wrong with the world today..." --Aerosmith, Living on the Edge |

Thanks so much to all of you. I simply needed something whimsical after the grim poetry I have been writing since Sept. 11. Thank you. Joyce |
