Notes About The Poem

Autumn is my favorite time of the year. With its bright-colored leaves and fall time smells. The sweater’s to keep cozy on cool nights. The pumpkins and gourds on the porches marking the season.

Autumn's Fall

Autumn's Fall

Two silhouettes together, 
Under the light of the moon. 

The hooting of owls  
Is singing a scary tune. 

Dark shadows fly past us, 
But your arms hold me tight. 

With thoughts on your love, 
I lose fear for the night. 

The pumpkin that glows 
On the steps by my door.

It seems to be smiling, 
Makes me longing for more. 

The moonlight in the sky  
Shines down on the ground. 

Glistening the leaves, 
That covers the ground.
