The air smells of autumn

Leaves fall off the tree slowly 

Apple cider brews


The air smells of autumn

Too much apple in the cider

My eyes sting with tears


The air smells of autumn

I rather smell the pie bake

Leaves crunch beneath my feet


The air smells of autumn 

I rather watch the leaves change

Fall represents me


The author's comments:

My name is Danielle and I wrote this piece since I am a libra. Autumn is the perfect season, a beautiful balance between warm and sunny with a brisk of wind. Summers have become overbearingly hot and winters have become unusually cold. I wrote this piece to shed light on an under-appreciated season that seems to last for at least 2 weeks every year.
