Falling down

Leaves baked to a crisp

like pumpkin pie crust

go crunch crunch

beneath your feet,

happily they let go

falling down

to litter the

sleeping street.

Fall, fall,

drop down them all

flitter to the ground

until in leaves

I am drowned.

Shiver against

the chilling breeze

it nips my nose

and makes me sneeze

ah- ah- achoo

Puffs of breath

hang in the air

a baby ghost

waiting for a scare.

All in all,

I love the fall

The clouded sky

and playful breeze

leaves that fly

dancing trees;

look up and see

the waning sun

for he brings out

never-ending fun. :)
