seasons/autumn

Autumn is like a favorite

Sweater - pulled from the corner

Of the closet. Fitting just right

On the wrists and laying across the shoulders.

Full of promise and memories,

Like the first pour of whisky from the bottle

You know you’ll share it with celebrations, rejoicing, and tears

Company, loneliness and cold nights.


Autumn is a breath of fresh air when you’d forgotten the room was stale.
