Autumn in NY


I am craving a walk in the park


Covered in leaves


Rainbows of leaves


Dancing oranges and sullen reds


The smell of pine cones


Wood fires burning


The chill of the season on your skin


Warmth wrapped in turtlenecks and scarves


A bit of sweat forms at the small of your back as you hike through naked tree-lined trails



The rejuvenation of each changing month


The tempered days and tid-bit-nippy nights


A bite of crisp apple


Blushed with sweetness


Sunkissed like cheeks on the face of the hiker


Wishing Winter would pass us by


Wishing Spring could be as cool; warm jewel tones


Wishing Summer would hurry along


Warm jewel tones
Rainbows of leaves
I am craving a walk in the park
