1.
Warm ochre and orange blooms
vibrant hued festivities
season of sweetness overload.
2.
Yellowed leaves gently falling
providing warmth to the earth
from the oncoming chilly winter.
3.
Smog chokes ragged breaths
descending greyness
settles cozily in the lungs.
4.
Hot, spiced pumpkin latte
welcoming the darker half
a spook fest on the cards.
5.
Autumn’s celestial bodies
cast a golden mellow glow
rites and rituals and fruitfulness.
Written for Sadje’s wdys, David’s W3 to Sylvia’s prompt (a cadralor on autumn) and Eugi’s moonwashed weekly challenge.

Beautiful autumn musings, my favorite time of the year.

Within the loveliness, that dark moment :
“Smog chokes ragged breaths
descending greyness
settles cozily in the lungs.”
