Dreaming of Fall

I’m dreaming of Autumn, a time where everything changes. The Texas heat still lingers, but there is a sense of hope creeping in. Fall- Halloween and Thanksgiving Should be coming soon. Watching football on a Sunday afternoon Enjoying time with your family, Playing cornhole in the backyard. Watching a scary movie in the dark. The seasons changing, people changing as they think of a time… A time where the atmosphere changes, where people are happier. Crisp days spent enjoying a sip of coffee, Seeing the smiles of others as they pass you in the shop. Rainy days spent inside reading your favorite book. Waking up to a misty morning, perfect for a sweater. These are the days I look forward to, and the things I wish to be true. But, this is not quite the way it is here. So, this is why I dream. I dream of these things that will not come true In the full extent here in this small, Texas town; a town where the heat of summer interferes with what should be fall. Fall is but a brief moment in time here It passes by quickly, but it is Just as magical as one could imagine
