This was my mini contest entry for @/_writersconnect on Instagram.
Prompt: Autumn Breeze

Arrival (Written 4-8-20)
She rattles the changing leaves
sat upon brittle branches
catching them in cool arms
before they flutter to the ground

She carries them along
with the scent of hot spice
lifted from small pies
left out to cool on window sills

She releases her collected treasures
along the way
to share with every passerby
to let them know she's come to stay
