KNOWING

Listening to the wind

whistling through the trees,

seeing masses of brown foliage

floating toward the ground.

Feeling chills in the air,

zipping my jacket up high,

realizing summer has passed,

knowing, cold nights are near.

Smiling, memories surface

of past Halloween nights

my fun trick or treating,

a special time in my life.

Of all the seasons we have,

I choose Autumn

its golden colors,

and holiday spirits in the air.
