The leaves are changing
Changing right before my eyes
    - So Beautiful -

They are turning many shades of
        golds
           browns
             reds
    and many shades inbetween
Wow, there are so many colors for my eyes to behold

The leaves edges are curling
They are ready to fall to the ground
    below my feet

I will step carefully on the dry, fallen leaves
          - C - R - U - N - C - H -
A sound that they will make beneath my shoes
A sound that since as a child I have always loved
    on the way walking to and from school

The Fall air, in the between of the day
                           turning into night
is so cool
     so crisp
     so refreshing
     so light
So light, that it makes me feel
like I could float into the nevermore

These are my impressions that Fall is here
and that it's friend Winter is soon on it's way
