Summer To Fall

 

The sunflowers are gone

And took the daisies with them

The mums will arrive and will bring the green and purple cabbage

Gourds and pumpkins quickly follow

 

Summer is quietly slipping out the back door

As autumn places it luggage and bags on the front porch

We will miss our warm and relaxed friend

But welcome our crunchy and crisp new visitor

 

These short few months with each seem to go by quickly

Just as you ease into a groove, it’s time for a change

It’s good for your schedule and your home

But most importantly, it does wonders for your soul

Amen, brother! Autumn is my favorite season, I can hear the crickets, smell the fires burning, and crisp is right! I love the fresh air autumn rushes in to soothe us from the heat of the summer. Of course, I love summer as well, but, I was born in the fall, so I'm a little biased!!
This is such a great write, I'm running to the front door with open arms to great autumn....
Lovely!!
