Autumn is a time for change
You've heard it all before, the colours, the range!
But what is it about Autumn that really touches the soul?
The rustling trees in the wind, the burning fire on the coal?
Depends on how you look at it
No-one is the same
Is it a metaphor for life?
Or is it just Nature's game?
No-one can deny
It's a fantastic display of art
From the warming hay in the meadows
To the sunsets that touch the heart
The crispy air when you step out the door
The kids screaming in delight at the leaves galore...
All the things that one can describe
It's hard not to be a cliche when this time arrives
But why hold back when something is so dear?
Isn't there beauty to be found at every moment of the year?
What makes Autumn so special that sets it apart from other seasons?
Why is it taking me so long to think of the reasons?
Perhaps I am looking for more than what is already there
I was better at this as a child, being an adult isn't fair!
So perhaps that is the key
To look at life through children's eyes
Where changes big and small
Are met with wonder and surprise!
