Scented Leaves

~ We frolic through the scented leaves aromas fill the air Such beauty found as autumn weaves these wondrous sights to share Now wandering a winding path while cooler breezes chase For rosy cheeks the aftermath is smiles on our face With winter waiting in-between we breathe the season’s spice Of cinnamon and evergreen and everything that’s nice For here as maples line the way with barren branch the view Through scented leaves I’ll run and play this autumn day with you 11/11/19 Written for the Scented Leaves Poetry Contest Sponsored by Kim Rodrigues
