Au Revoir, Aout

Dearest August,

You came and went.

You took along with you a lolo and a friend.

You came in and gave me good byes,

but you brought along some new beginnings, too.

Is this what you're teaching me, August, independence and letting go?

Thank you for being generous enough to throw in some courage, too.

I needed that.

Now that you've passed and left me at September's hands,

would it be such a bother to ask for a bit more Courage... or maybe lots, if you can help it.

xo,

Eds
