Autumn .....

the sunflowers are blushing, longevity

the crows are glossy black and raucous

the shrieking sun peeks through the ghostly clouds

you can hear the blood-curdling howl of the werewolf wind

you can feel the fall colors wrap around you like a tartan backdrop

cider is at cedar

the apple trees are honeycrisp

the ground we walk on is caramelized flannel

a flannelette latte

an autumn auteur

a burnt umber umbrella
