Dear Sweet Autumn – POEM

Dear Fall, my dear sweet Autumn

When your temperatures drop

The leaves drop to the bottom

You’re not too cold just alittle bit frosty

And when you come around

I switch from icies to hot tea

For these three months you’ll make 2018the colors turn

Greens become yellows before becoming reds that burn

L

ike the July junipers when they feel the cold air

your chills in October always make me feel bare,

But I welcome you and I love all that you do

Cause my Spring heat and pain

m

elts away when I’m with you

I always cry spring showers til the month of May

I cry hurricane tears ’til sweltering September comes my way

‘

Til, dear Autumn, you’ll come and chill the hurt away

Leaves will drop instead of teardrops

As those leaves turn all the pain stops

These next three months will be a relief

Becaus, dear Autumn, you’re the season of no grief
