When Autumn Falls:

A Poem by alexAlexander
"

This is the season we most enjoy.

"
When Autumn Falls
The dying season, autumn breeze, falls quietly
In September, nature’s beauty turns the page
Leaves fade and turn into warm embers:            
Glowing in fire, crackling, October’s fragile certainty,                                                                                                   
 life cycles among the pines smell like teens.                           
 Spirit, echoes of autumn fall, we connected with.
Football and sweater weather: with Soccer 
Kickoff. Counting stars, just before the autumn.
Rain, radiance unfolding her colors in nature.
This side of winter, it’s partial atoms adjacent
Couples taking photographs of a lasting fall
Memories. Embraced in the alchemy of.
Seasons, remember the way in its fading.
 When we first met, a simple glance or 
our gentle touch of acceptance, reflection
In change, nothing to hold on to.
But to be next to you. Take me to church.
And we walk after, among crimson leaves.
Red maple in front of our eyes takes shape:
Then disappears, like pumpkin pie.
As autumn masquerades as Halloween 
costumes, spooky and witchy: trick or treat.
The change you wait to see.
While embracing the birth of a new cycle.
Blooms from the ashes.
A dream of the colors, all things bright and 
Beautiful. Take the day off.
Here, we unveiled ourselves.
