The Spendor of Autumn ~ Katherine M. Parisse ~ Living Each Day

Autumn is upon us
Trees turn to red and gold.
The contrast of the colors
Is bright and wonderfully bold.

A slight chill is in the air
Autumn is all around.
You hear the crackling of the leaves
When your feet walk on the ground.

Children waiting for Halloween
They want to trick or treat.
The smell of smoke from chimney
Is a fragrance, so very sweet.

We now wait for the holidays
As we hear the football cheers.
The beautiful splendor that is autumn
That tells us winter's near.
