Autumn’s Moment<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

–<\/p>\n\n

Seas of red, orange, and yellow,<\/p>\n\n

bathe my world and make me mellow.<\/p>\n\n

While cool winds dance across my face,<\/p>\n\n

foretelling of future\u2019s cold embrace.<\/p>\n\n

Drying leaves scent the air<\/p>\n\n

reminding me of summer\u2019s snare.<\/p>\n\n

As do calls from birds up high, <\/p>\n\n

calling out their warm goodbyes.<\/p>\n\n

From the heat and stress of summer,<\/p>\n\n

to chilling march of winter\u2019s drummer.<\/p>\n\n

Food changes at this time.<\/p>\n\n

From fruity salads to stews with thyme,<\/p>\n\n

freshly picked veggies and fruit from vines, <\/p>\n\n

turn to hearty soups and warmed up wines.<\/p>\n\n

This change revives me and reminds me,<\/p>\n\n

as I lay my back against a tree,<\/p>\n\n

to take in these moments, now and then.<\/p>\n\n

For when will you experience this again?<\/p>\n\n
