Whats Up There

High in the autumnal air the smell of wood burning is everywhere Folks tidying gardens love to burn forgetting that smoke has only upwards to go What else is up here, yes, the feel of cold winds As summer leaves us and autumn unfolds the air is full of coldness, making noses twitch Thinking of winter and the cosiness of this reminds us that fireworks will soon abound Lit on the ground but straight up they come to explode there Making the air smell of age old battles When gunpowder was king, just a memory within the mind of the old Who read of these things Romance is in the autumn air after the warmth of the sun made the love grow Needs the cosiness of autumn to keep,the pair together to find the love they knew Oh autumn air with clouds in your way push them aside, so the sun can stay Send warmth down to us, we need it each day, or we will wither and die The air is full of surprises, the birds flying in to stay Cos some  like the cold weather, then there's those that flyaway The bees and butterflies are near finished, nectar is collected     Job is done The noise of the snores of the hedghogs and such, as asleep they will stay Until the air is of springtime, they will awake . Goodnight autumnal bliss, i look forward to a new you each day.
