I've always loved September Song. It has a sort of longing melancholy about it that I feel around my Labor Day birthday. That time of year when people head out their doors in jackets and return home peeled to their undershirts late day.
This one was painted outside near Burton Lake. Hot, cold, near, far, birthdays, transitions..."and these few precious days, I'll spend with you, these precious days, I'll spend with you." (September Song)
Joan
