September Equinox

Seeking rest after a hard day's night, I find myself once again writing something for this blog.
Let's see what happens today...

Embracing Autumn

Autumn has sexy auburn hair and entrancing hazel eyes. Those eyes capture me, and she draws me in with that incredible smile. 
She gives the best hugs, it's all scarves and flannel and blue jeans with her; a warm fall scent: cinnamon and sunshine. She's warm and cool, all at the same time. 
We just walk hand in hand, the chilly breeze on our faces offset by the sun's gentle rays. 
Our footsteps fall into syncopation- crash crunch, crash crunch, through the fallen leaves. Geese fleeing the coming cold soar high above; and we lie on the bed of discarded foliage staring at the sky. Her skin is soft, and my heart beats faster. I couldn't wait to be with her, and now I can't stand the thought of her leaving. 
Her kiss, with those soft pink lips, stops my heart cold. I blush, and can't meet those hazel eyes with mine. The freckles on her cheeks catch my attention and I am further entranced. The way her hair curls around her ears. The way she talks so casually, always thoughtful and introspective. She means everything that she says, and I hang on every sound. I watch her lips as she talks, the way they form each word.
I see clouds on the horizon, pink and orange from the setting sun. A cold breeze whips through the air, cutting through our clothes. I know the time is coming. 
It kills me to know that she'll be gone as the darkness of winter closes in. But for now, I just want to breath her in and let go of all my stress and fears.
I just want to fall into her arms and forget about the world.
