Autumn

The vibrant oranges, reds, and yellows appear.

Leaves escape from their summertime captivity,

and fall freely to the Earth.

Children run outside, clad in a light jacket.

They dance in the sea of leaves, recently raked by their parents.

The sunsets match the vivid colors of the trees.

The nights are cooler, with calm winds blowing softly.

Friends and family's gather around carefully built fires.

They roast marshmallows and tells stories of summertime.

Only when the become the mosquitoes meal, do they head inside.
