This Wonderful Season

How grand is this day
Filled with beautiful light
The sky a royal blue
And the temperature just right

Not a cloud in the sky
Just the sun in its glory
The birds still are singing
What a wonderful story

Leaves are starting to change
Their colors are magnificent
All the smells of Autumn
Bring out quite the scent

My pumpkins are collecting
Brilliant faces to them all
They are Jack-O-Lanterns
Just ready for the Fall

I can’t wait for the season
The best that I’ve ever seen
It’s the Autumn spectacular
The holiday of Halloween

How joyous and whimsical, my dear friend - I love everything about this, especially the warmth in my heart and the smile it put on my face this morning, (damp and dreary here in Maine). A wonderful write, Russell - thank you for sharing! :-)

I'm not a big fan of Halloween and it is not as big here in the UK, as in the USA.. However, this is a great poem and you have created great imagery as always..
