Fall

The other day I took a long walk around my town

During this walk I took sight of a marvelous phenomenon

The transition from summer to fall

It just so happened that the first signs of fall had appeared that day

The grass was slowly losing the colour and shape it had built up during the hot summery months

Animals that had regularly showed up in the summer were less sighted now

The wind had a new crisp and cool feeling to it

Aromas of woods, spices, and baked goods filled the air all around

The clouds have all muddled into a somber grey unsaturating the once bright blue sky

And these leaves had started to sneak new hints of orange, yellow, red, and brown

The golden leaves dispersed the sun rays on the canvas of the ground

The painting of rays created a mood of warmth and love

But the canvas was littered with scattered and worn leaves

And it only reminded one of sadness

But sadness wasn't always a bad thing

Sometimes it showed how people could function and push through another day

Even on the darkest and hardest of days when they wanted to give up

How people could still create the most beautiful and inspirational work in their lives

When the weight of the world came crashing on them and slowly crushed them

Maybe if we learned from the works
