i think i'm in love.

-Summer Again-- -

I'm watching the green give into gold

As summer becomes October's cold

Gravity begs

For one final kiss

She drops it to him, as she gives in

Traces of light, linger around

As laces of white fall to the ground

The softest of sounds for the heaviest things

And the pain that it brings

As she falls I try to catch her

For one last touch of warmth from summer

As one thing leaves to becomes another again

I remember when

Don't remember the day, she started to fade

The ground felt a chill as she gave it away

A whisper - a sigh, for the time that she passed

But this winter won't last

The days were warm and we wore them like skin

Now I feel the effects of October again

As she falls I try to catch her

For one last touch of warmth from summer

As one thing leaves to becomes another again

I remember when

Oh to be with summer again

I'm watching the green give in to gold

As summer becomes Octobers cold


I love these words. Maybe because they were so true!! :) I love summer!! Winter? Eh, not so much! But what about what lies between those seasons? I didn't think I'd ever hear myself saying this..Really. I didn't.  .. but.. IthinkIamgoingtoloveautumn! I always laughed at those who enjoyed it. Crazy people! It's brown and cold! What's so great about that?! I am always quite sad when summer leaves..it means winter is coming. Again. But this year my opinions are changing. Yes, winter is still coming and I am still not looking forward to it.. but there is a most lovely time of year before then. FALL! There are so many wonderful things about it! I think about the only reason I didn't like it was because of the coming winter. We all know it's going to come sometime, and that sometime is usually sooner than I desire. --but this year I want to embrace it. Autumn that is--.hoodies. .good company. {around} .campfires. .gorgeous leaves. .hot cider. .blue sky and starry nights. -- Yes please! Cold and brown? More like bonfire weather and little weeds just begging to be photographed!! This year I want to take the time to cherish it.. the varying shades of orange..yellow..red..brown..and green! It's breathtaking! Especially when God decides to make those colours pop a little extra with the vibrant blue sky and cottontail clouds! Thank you God for summer..and for the change that comes afterward every year!! It's wonderful. beautiful. marvelous. Why did I not take time to stop and enjoy it?! Winter will come, yes, but I want to enjoy the colour and smells of autumn while they last! I'm thinking it shall be quite lovely! :)
