Long sunny days fade like a quiet dream. Cool air sneaks in like time bringing a first wrinkle. Leaves begin to change color on the trees. Birds begin to disappear for warmer climates. You can see Geese in arrow shapes filling the sky as if pointing out the obvious. Pumpkins begin to turn a bright Orange as Corn fields turn Golden. The sun sets lower each day as children laugh and play. Scare Crows begin to emerge as porch lights come on a little earlier and shine their guiding lights to let you know where home is. Festivals come around and the smell of the county fair returns. The Cotton Candy makes for sticky smiles. Carmel Apples get caught in your teeth and young lovers bundle up under warm quilts hand made by favorite aunts or grand mothers. Supper taste sweeter as family gathers around the table. All of the things that make fall wonderful come back when Autumn comes again.
