an ode to fall//

Being the first day of fall yesterday, I am going to dedicate this post to one of the happiest seasons around.
//And it ain't just cause it's my birthday month either. coughcoughThursdaycoughcough

I call it...An Ode to Fall.

Cue the orchestra.

they are NOT mine**

I wake up slowly

In a cuddly mess,

Beneath a few blankets,

more or less

I walk downstairs

to pour a cup of joe,

Add some pumpkin spice,

You already know fo’sho

The possibilities are endless

When it comes to my clothes

Boots and denim

Ladies, you know how it goes

I walk outside

And take in the smells

Of bonfires, leaves,

And other fall spells

I keep walking forward

And pull my scarf tighter

Already dreaming

Of some warm apple cider

The plans for the weekend

Are already booked

Orchards and Crockpots

Something yummy to be cooked

This season is my favorite

And not only for my bday

I’m LOVING it all,

Fall, can you please just stay?
