First Day of Autumn
It doesn’t seem like autumn yet
But it will very soon, I’d bet.
Though all the leaves I see are green,
The air is feeling in-between.
It isn’t crisp or brisk, but still,
Beneath the muggy, there’s a chill,
Not quite enough for sweats or fleece,
But plenty for departing geese.
Today is the official date
Of autumn’s start and I can’t wait
For foliage that shouts out “Fall!”
And weather I love best of all.
