Autumn Arrives

Autumn approaches subtly
You can smell it in the air
The distant trees outlined in gold
Cool breezes in my hair

A leaf or two fall gently
Taking their time as they float down
Without a care they linger
Before they hit the ground

Cinnamon laced hot cider
With just a hint of orange
Add warmth to cool evenings
And delight to early morns

The crisp blue autumn skies
None other can compare
Clear and bright the moon still lingers
In this day he wants to share

Smoky hair from last night’s bonfire
And memories of the laughter
These autumn days and nights
Help make life a little better
