The crunching of leaves beneath my feet

The forest is alive with color

Leaves of red, orange and yellow

Drift through the sky 

 

A breeze swooshes around me

Bringing the smell of freshness and life

The scent of the trees floats through the air

Grass tickles my ankles as I stroll down the path

 

The birds are gathering food

Getting ready for the winter ahead 

The sky is blue broken by clouds

Crisp and white and fluffy 

 

Looking forward to cider and pie

At home in my toasty kitchen 

A blanket around  my shoulders

And a book in my lap

“Grief,I've learned is really just love. It's all the love you want to give but cannot. All that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part in your chest. Grief Is just love with no place to go.”

GREAT JOB CLARA!!!!!
