Change of Seasons
by Mewsette
"To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under the sun."
I was going to make a speech about the season changing to Fall, which is my furry fafurite of all of them. I love to see Fall come, and the change to cooler weather, nippy breezes, gentler sun, always invigorates me. This is the 20th Fall I have seen, and the most contented one I have ever known. Many long years ago, when the leaves turned colors and fell to the ground, I ran and played in them. I can still do that in my dreams, when I turn over and go back to sleep.
But many other things change, too, some of them not so pleasant. With this Fall season, CLAW has closed. It's the second closing I've seen. I've been in CLAW almost 7 years and in this group about 4 years. I never imagined I would outlive CLAW, but I did.
So although it's a sad thing to me to lose it, and sadder still to lose this group because it is my sisfur's, I will look ahead to the days to come with thankfulness for all the years I enjoyed and survived. I will look with enjoyment at a new season full of happiness and love, with gratitude that I'm here to see it.
Thanks for the memories.
