It Must Have Been Labor Day

We're supposed to have celebrated the dignity of work on this special Monday in September; and yes, we did. Sometimes, though, the many symbolic indicators of Labor Day overcome its deeper meaning!

Jerry Lewis on TV
The US Open we did see
Joe closed the pool
Kids started school
Plants stopped growing
Less often we're mowing
Days much shorter
Still the year's third quarter
Not quite fall season
My personal reason
To not relinquish here
My favorite time of year
