Floating to the ground
Rain helping
Bring them down
Minds switch from
Summer to fall
Replace beach balls
Apples, gourds
Are in all places
Carving pumpkins
Into Jack-o faces
Burning leaves
And wearing jackets
Starts turning our
Thoughts to Christmas racket.
Each unique
Standing inside
And taking a peek
Standing round
The fireplace
Roasting marshmallows
The glow bouncing on our face
Seasons come
And they go
Memories are made
Until they over flow.

I remember my girl friend and I raking leaves into a house plan — and sneezing. Love fall, even though winter is not far behind.
