Autumn Falling

The leaves become crispy;
as the winds begin to chill,
The clouds settle in;
Causing the trees to play,
A new soundtrack is laid down,
Replacing the Summer;
With new sights and sounds.

Autumn falls in, as the summer drifts,
the sound of waves fade; the insects die,
What was once green, is now orange, red and brown,
The soft mud is now cold dirt,
Dew on grass; now frost,
The trees begin to shed,
As they litter the grass.

The days are lost, as the nights are found,
My face grows tender,
My fingertips, icy,
The air I breathe is cold,
The warmth I exhale, visible,
My cheeks rosy;
As I try to keep my hands warm.



In the heart of wood,
Once surrounded by thick air,
& Distant laughter, and the hum of play,
I stand in silence, blanketed with comfort,
The air so chill, so crisp
as I breathe, my nose hollowed out by the cold,
My lungs frosty, my veins icy,
At last; Love is found,

This something I wrote while very chilly, which influenced this quite a bit hehe. I love the fall, it's my favourite season. The colours are amazing, the air is clean, everything is so calm. It's not as wet as the spring, it's not as cold as the winter, and it's not as polluted as the summer. It's simply the best, so thats why I wrote this :)
