his warm hand grasps onto her frigid one,
as the sound of leaves crunching under their feet,
fills the crisp air.
all around them mother nature gives her last radiant show.
vibrantly shaded leaves of yellow, orange and red dance above their heads,
occasionally daring to flutter down and kiss the ground.
the sun dips behind the tree line,
casting a maze of shadows onto the road ahead of them.
she glances up at him,
memorizing the way the soft light illuminates his face,
casting a warm glow that entrances her heart.
she hops onto the tips of her toes and gently pecks his cheek.
he smiles down at her and they continue down the path,
set by the underappreciated tone of november.
