This is my season,
Fall.
I was born here
in the dying windblown
leaves,
a swirl of brilliant colors
in the crisp air,
saying good-bye
until spring.
When rising with the sun
is rising before the
sun and watching
the parade of colors
and birds like
a marching band
sing greetings to old sol,
And rains cool
the summer swelter.
And winds shout in
the trees
knocking of leaves
as they run through
in reckless abandon.
This is my season,
Fall.
And my favorite
for the cool crisp
morning
and the changing
scenes
that come in
October.
