I don’t know why
But right now I want
To go to the beach
And feel the cold water hit my feet
Feel the sand in between my toes,
Hear the crashing waves hitting the sand
Relaxing under the sun
Before the leaves turn
Fiery red,
Sunny gold,
The wood brown,
And the careful orange
As they fall
The kids play trying to catch
The leaves
And when the day turns to dusk
Eyes that glow on every step
Leads to a bowl of sweets
For the screaming
Trick or treat
As loud, they can shout
Laughter and happiness
Full the sky
The air around is being
Full with the smell of turkey
And apple pie
But as the trees turn bare
The snowfall
Every so graceful
There a tree in the middle
Of every family room
That Glows in the dark
Green’s and red hides
Under the tree
And stocking that hangs on
The fireplace
Are full with
Gumdrops and sugarplums
As sugarplums slowly disappear
Fireworks fill the sky
A new year has started
Yet again
