I have memories of autumn leaves

Vestiges of a summer gone too fast

Stamping out the long days and warm weather

Heroically ushering in a new season of life

Felt through gentle breezes and seen

Entrancing me with its vivid reds, yellows and oranges

Escapism finds me as I leap

Apace into a freshly raked pile

Leaves surround me

Melting my summer memories as I welcome autumn.
