The Magic of Autumn

Crackling leaves
Laughing with delight
As they swirl and twirl
In the crimson light
Around the bond fire
Snapping flames 
Glowing in the night
Near the lake
The water breaking
As the birds take flight
Frosty orange pumpkins 
Watching from the vine
On the porch
Kegs of apple cider 
And cherry wine
Crispy whispers
Blowing through the pines
As the magic spell of autumn
Once again unwinds.
