Reflecting back to summer one final time
Thankful now, fall air has arrived—so fine
Enjoying late night, chilly times around the fire pit
Roasting marshmallows, everyone warms and sits
A pre-dawn morning welcomes an autumn walk
Bringing opportunities for a brisk God-filled talk
Grooming up the yard before winter cold arrives
Raking leaves as long as tired muscles survive
Friday nights bring fans to exciting high school football games
Which teams will stand out on their way to victory and fame?

Observing another magnificent setting sun
Rich hues and shadows generate much fun
The sun settles below the horizon, very distant
The harvest moon will soon arrive in an instant
Farmers work steady throughout the busy daytime
Harvest will soon finish up, making families feel fine
Walking through a peaceful and empty city park
Falling leaves cause trees to look bare and stark
Enjoying this most favorite season of the year
Let’s take a road trip, to someplace far or near
The calendar fills with festivals and celebrations
Octoberfest and bazaars reach out to a nation

Fall and Halloween décor showcased on time
Encouraging autumn’s images to further shine
Nature prepares for another frigid, winter season
Squirrels and chipmunks stay busy with a reason
A camera lens wakes up to spectacular views
Autumn’s pigments captured, brilliant and true
Driving down the highway on a sun-filled afternoon
The dazzling show of autumn’s colors will end soon
Sorting through mothballed clothing once again
Finding that winter coat—where have you been?

We used to have autumn here in Hong Kong, but now it’s still practically like summer here. Now, we only have a Mi-Autumn Festival 🙂

Thank you for sharing. Central Ohio will “finally” move from summer to autumn this Thursday night. I am very much ready for more fall-like weather.

Great poem and great description of the fall season! We are kind of missing our fall season this year with all this rain we have had, but usually it is a beautiful time, even if very short.

You’re welcome. Yeah, it’s a bit scary in places along that path now, getting close to that river, only about 6 feet away in places, except for a couple parts completely underwater now. Fortunately in those spots there is a higher path to use. Always wondered why there was a split path in those places. Now I know.
