Autumn Nights

The air is cool, almost cold,
with that sharp crisp smell.
So clean, so fresh.
Leaves are changing,
green turning to
bright golds,
rich oranges,
dark reds.
Then falling to the ground,
with that sharp crisp sound.
The hottest part of the year,
behind us.
The coldest part of the year,
not quite upon us.
Perfect weather for
sleeping in,
snuggling into someone you love.
The sky so bright and clear.
A bright moon seeming
that much brighter,
the cold making the air
just so clean.
A gentle breeze stirs the leaves,
and the hairs on your skin,
making the bumps rise,
making you look for someone
to cuddle with.
Ah, to early autumn,
the perfect time of year.
