Fall shifting
From out to in
Chill to hot
Far to close
Ground baren
Blowing in mess
Distance greater
No more cherries
Leaves collapse
Darkness greys the day
Sweater’s paint the colors
Jackets and hats
Hold back the cold
Barbeque moves inside
Golf turns to football
Football to basketball
Christmas is born in the mall
Feasting in desires flight
Heat comes to melt
Time waits for the day
Brown turns to white
Silence masters noise
Breath can be seen
Breeding hides
In Winter’s waiting
Holding on to close
In comforts warmth
Slowing the day
Until tomorrow awakes
Waiting for Spring.
