Damp from an overnight rain
Chill seeps from fall morning air
Fog tendrils around our homes
Drops flash with a hit of flare
Sun glows between drifting clouds
Soft shadows fade in and out
A nuthatch squeaks his odd call
Night's rain has ended our drought
My toes feel a nip of fall
Chickadees swoop through the trees
Red cardinals call with sharp chirps
Yellow tinge marks autumn's tease
From garden crickets still sing
White capped weeds glow at wood's edge
Chipmunk surveys my backyard
From top of evergreen hedge
A break from morning's routine
To savor first signs of fall
A snapshot of nature's flow
Will never fail to enthrall
