The Arrival of Autumn

At long last the heat gives way
Coolness falls as the very first touches of autumn are seen
Leaves have started to change
They fall
The breeze brings with it a soft chill on the air
Mixing with the sun’s rays there is a
Perfect balance

To sit in the afternoon sun
With the earth shedding the summer
To lay and rest in the shade of a tree
Would be the place
Where I would want to be
To rest
And bask in the arrival of autumn
