the leaves are slowly changing on the trees in my neighborhood. i notice them five days a week when i ride the bus home. the air is starting to get cooler and i'm starting to find myself walking slower on my way home to enjoy it, i want to soak in every minute of this cool transitioning air. my eyes actually look up to ahead of me instead of at my shoes. the weather brings out the colors of the houses, orange, sky blue, red, mustard yellow, burgundy, brown, magenta. everything seems so perfect in these moments.
