Fall Sonnet

Fall
The change in leaves from bright green to gold rust,
Suggests the autumnal cool is right about to arrive
From a kaleidoscope of colors, to the brisk wind gusts,
The thoughts and plans of thanksgiving are being contrived.

When summer falls to autumn your wardrobe shifts,
Which leads to a cozy flannel or the comfort of a scarf
Then brings the limited edition flavors into the mix
Slowly the days get shorter and the light gets dark

When pumpkin flavored lattes begin to be made,
crisp red apples are again on their way
The longing for summer quickly starts to fade,
And all you want is for cider and pumpkins to stay

In the end the pumpkin bagels and coffee leave

Which leaves myself and others to grieve.
