Leaves crackle and break
Crunching under the heavy footfall
Bright oranges and reds mixed with yellows
Autumn is here, these colors can't be fake
Apples orchards fill with excited children squealing in delight
Hot pressed cider to quell the morning chills
The scent of cinnamon invades the nasal passages
While the crisp crunch of a ripe apple rises to greet your ears
Pumpkin patches bring the animated halloween lovers
The thought of carving scary faces that glow yellow beneath the full moon
The crackling of the flames inside their creations bringing smiles to their faces
The smell of homemade pumpkin seeds throttling their hunger for thanksgiving
Late nights are spent cuddling into your sweatshirt
Watching the flames of a bonfire burn higher into the starry night sky
Roasting marshmallows while the fire crackled below the sticky sweets
As wood burned and brought the remembrance of those happy summer memories
Rainfall comes here and there, leaving people with their umbrellas
The gentle pitter patter of the wet drops onto the nylon canopy that keeps them dry
Wet leaves and the salty sweet air that comes from the precipitation
Gray clouds blocking out the bright blue sky that leaves everyone smiling throughout the day
