How I Miss Fall


Gone is autumn gold.
Winter winds howl, loud and bold.
Sun can’t fight the cold.
Jack Frost sits upon his throne,
bound to chill us to the bone.

I enjoyed reading your fun write. Fall is a great time of the year. I also love it. Jack Frost will be gone in a few weeks, then spring then summer. Do not worry it will be back before you know it. Have a fun day as you write away..................
