Take Time and Smell The Roses/Autumn Leaves

[Samaled]

  Happy Labor Day.  i fianlly took the time to go out and smell the roses and see the leaves turn.   Then came in and barely listened to the greying haired President speak.  What a job!  He isn't as fluent as he was on the campaign trail and the job is aging him. Plus his words were not flowing...like they use to be..i qote..He starts :let me tell you/ya' something" then goes on to parly with words.
I give him credit for trying...but I wanted more credit given to those who have spent years defending us and our country. 
This is when, I decided to go out and mentally smell the roses and physically watch the air change, the quiet town, ready for the hustle and bustle of school age children.  Wondering have we given them  "our" time to smell the roses together!:)
