autumn's embrace

as fall starts rolling in

and summer slows to a stop

i like to imagine many things, 

everything, nonstop

i imagine the sweet, sweet song of hooting owls after dark

i dream of chai tea lattes with pumpkin cold foam in the park

i think of how the sun's golden rays dance through my window sill

while gentle winds whisper secret songs of fun and thrill

pumpkins light up doorsteps, decorated to your desire

i sit in a sweater with my homework, on the couch, right by the fire

embracing the beauty that autumn brings

and the songs that nature sings

we find much needed love and peace

that brings our souls release
