I prefer Autumn! It is my favourite season and, for me, it is so much nicer then Summer.

The air begins to cool and the leaves change colour. Just what I prefer!

It's been unbearably hot here With the warm breath of late July, While the sky remains blue and clear. Th time fades away with a sigh, As August arrives full of peace With the warm breath of late July. It seems now this breath will cease, But can a new month point the way As August arrives full of peace? Then at last comes the special day As Autumn gold begins to shine, But can a new month point the way? The air is full of scented wine, And glory blesses all the days As Autumn gold begins to shine. The fading heat leaves gentle haze; It's been unbearably hot here And glory blesses all the days While the sky remains blue and clear.
