It's In The Air

Thinking about the coming winter

Its in the air

That chill I feel

Nipping my nose

Lipping my toes

Its in the air

All fresh and clear

Chilling finger tips

Bringing pain to aching hips

Its in the air

That smell so dear

Crisp smoke tinted air

Static crackles in my hair

Its in the air

Here at last

Cool and bracing

Winter is facing

Its in the air

A bite so sharp

Waking winter senses

Feeling its winces

Its in the air

This time I love

Warm wool surrounds

Embracing abounds

The first hints of an approaching season are always stirring, I think. That crispness in the air and smell of wood burning in fireplaces are hard to beat for their pleasant allure.

I enjoyed this, makes me want to put a sweater on. Fall is my favorite season and I hate to see it go.

[Dream Weaver]

Oh yes so many things bout this time of year I love like the bright colors of nature shedding it's skin(figuratively speaking) ... but this stanza stands out for me...

ts in the air
That smell so dear
