Day 4 - 13 Days of Halloween - Autumn's Beauty
The sun spills warmly into the day, warming the chilled air
I find myself drawn to the trails
That wind down into the valley
Where the foliage has burst forth
With its gay festival attire.
I pull air into my lungs and smile,
As the autumn scents - musky and freshly organic
surround me and lift my spirits.
I cannot help feel freer here
Where the world is changing
From its summer garb, into fall fashion - a dazzling display
A last hurrah, before the winds pick up
And strip the summer's bounty from each branch
Letting the darkness fold in
As winter moves onto the stage
And with it, a period of dormancy.
A chance to recharge and plan for a new season to come.
I too, am ready for a quieter life
A time to put away such loveliness
And sit with my thoughts
Recharging and getting ready
For the next bountiful season.
