Incense Infuses Autumn Air

    "Incense Infuses Autumn Air"



aromatic incense infuses
brisk winds billow golden leaves dance
sweet potato pie baking
scent of chestnuts roasting
marshmallows graze flame
Autumn cupcakes
chilly breeze
delights
air.

air
inhales
pumpkin bread
wood burning stoves
charms harvest in bloom
kissed by frosty breathing
smells haunting Autumn decor
as Angels dust atmosphere sweet
intoxicate petals crisp cool air

fragrant aroma swells hearth and home
infiltrates with candied apples
cinnamon spice tempts Autumn
holly berry laces
trees with cider chips
inhale crepe musk
as Heaven
feeds Earth
air.

air
caress
breathtaking
pleasant twirl glows
sunshine warms odors
cascading Autumn air
vibrant view invigorates
senses accelerate enjoy
harmony exists to honor God.
