The lively choreography of autumn
an emphasis on leaves
a kaleidoscope of colors
putting the spirit at ease
A briskness in the air
cool to the skin
wrapped in a blanket
watching the leaves spin
Fall decorations
surround the patio
colorful pumpkins and mums
smooth jazz on the radio
Firepit lit
s’mores and hot apple cider
love and laughter
smile grows wider
Silent now
listening to the crickets
sky filled with stars
moonlight filters through the thicket
A beautiful season
harvest of serenity
the smells of autumn
oh so heavenly
