Autumn
It’s coming, cloaked in colors of the earth
To live awhile, then fertilize its place of birth
With wind blowing leaves with its assertiveness
They twirl in the air, and rest on the ground
You rake them up, and make a pile
Add apples, and bees
And you know it is Fall

I wish we had autumn leaves. I miss the seasons since we moved to Florida.

I would love to. I cruised from Miami Port last year, and stayed in So. Beach last year. I am always ready to hop on a plane and go, go, go!

They haven’t started turning here yet, but the weather’s cool and fall-like today. I’ve always liked the fall.

I like the cold right up until January. Then I get tired of it. 🙂

LOL. I know the feeling all to well. Burrrrr. The good thing living in Delaware is, that it doesn’t get much snow.
