I feel autumn in the air. Soon the trees and grasses Will trade Their summer shades of green For a patchwork explosion Of reds and golds; Lingering on the crisping air Will come the scent Of burning leaves, And we will trade our shorts Our flip flops, And our swimming suits For coats, For warm woolen scarves And for mittens. Halloween will arrive Amid a shrieking plethora Of corn mazes And haunted houses, Followed soon after By Thanksgiving, And Black Friday Will lead us Into winter And the busy-ness Of Christmas. Autumn is a time Of family, Of children behaving As children, And for celebrating Our bountiful harvest Of blessings. Is it any wonder That it vies with spring On my list Favorite things?

You covered my list of things that make autumn great. Unfortunately, most of that season is lost around here and I miss it dearly. Ron

Fall is my favorite time of year because of everything you expressed in the poem. I loved it.

Yes indeed, Rebecca, autumn is darn near here. It is my favorite season, probably because it starts getting rid of the really hot temperatures that summer give us. Nicely written poetry.
