The Nip In The Air Poem by Dee Daffodil

The Nip In The Air

Rating: 4.8


I love this time of year! !
I absolutely adore this time of year!
It makes my heart sing!

I love the smell of woodsmoke
As it wafts it's way
From chimney tops
Through the Autumn air

I love the crispness
Of the air...
As well as
The crispness of the leaves
That have fallen from the trees

I love the wondrous sunsets
And how they seem to be so lively!
Even better with spooky trees
In front to add a little character!

I love the apples picked
So fresh and with
Just the right amount
Of tartness in each bite

I love the fact that
I need to root my sweaters
Out of storage
For those chilly days ahead

I love planting bulbs for Spring
And lovingly
Putting my garden
To bed for the Winter

I love the cooking smells
From my kitchen
And the change of menu
To pot roasts and lasagna
(oh...and apples pies...of course!)

What I love most though...
Are the colors! ! !
So vibrant, bright and lively!
Reds, oranges, rusts and golds! !

How could you not
Love this time of year?

I absolutely....
Without a doubt...
Am in love...
With Fall! !

Dee, You are absolutely right! You can feel it, and you can smell it! ... It may re -neg a little bit and try to cook you, but, at least now you know it's coming! Beautiful, Autumn anticipation stuff! B.V.A.

I love this. It took me right into the very essence of autumn. There's something about the quality of the light and the general moodiness of the season that gets me every year. I can't wait now! Great write Dee, thanks. Ez X
