Arrival of Autumn
Summer ceases,
While the dew point increases,
Warm days at the lake,
Soon turn to snuggling up in a sea of blankets.
Leaves retreat from the boughs,
Swirling and twirling,
Quietly dancing downwards,
Unaware of what's to happen next.
Flowers intake the last of their breaths,
Yawn and stretch,
And finally lay their heads down to rest.
Autumn winds exhale around trees,
Stirring what's left on their branches,
A crispy, cinnamon colored leaf falls away from it's once loved home.
