And winter waits to bring her glare,
I reach across for autumn's hand.
I pine...

First Day of AutumnIt doesn’t seem like autumn yet
But it will very soon, I’d bet.
Though all the leaves I see are green,
The air is feeling in-between.
It isn’t crisp or brisk, but still,
Beneath the muggy, there’s a chill,
Not quite...

of swirling
leaves, festivals,
blankets of frost, snow,

hot cocoa and board games

Under foot crunch
Thrashing sounds and cool
It takes my breath away
Bright colors mixed with brown---

Pure, cool

Autumn So RefreshingAutumn recites poetry to the manless meadow,
Morning dew glistens and the sun is mellow.
