Fly

The trees let their leaves fly,
Float,
Glide,
Soar,
And scatter across the grass like little paper birds
The trees are almost bare, covering the streets in their coat of leaves
The leaves show their true color, what’s underneath as they fly against the pale blue sky
They jump and spin across the street like little dancers
They hop and skip across the yards like little kids on a playground
The leaves, They pursue their dreams
They fly,
Everything is Red, Yellow, Brown, and Orange
All the costumes draped about ready to scare an unsuspecting sibling
Smiles plastered on friends as they laugh and giggle
They crunch crunch crunch on the leaves beneath
The shadow of an animal shakes the bush, scrounging around for food
The chilly air feels like relief to the hot summers, and we’re all hoping for a chilly haloween
Sweaters on everybody!
The leaves they fly along with everyone else,
Pumpkins lie around, ready to be made into jack o’ lanterns
Come to eat the most delicious treat, fresh apple pie!
The aroma overtakes, the taste is unimaginable,
The taste of fall,
Everyone knows it and they know it well
The tastes, smells, sights, and thoughts swirl in the breeze
And now it’s finally feeling like its…
Only a jump away
Waiting for the glorious moment when you realize it’s…
FALL
