My favourite season is upon us. As a Canadian, I am blessed to experience the change of four seasons throughout the year. But the #autumnal crisp air, the colours…
Hoodies, sweaters - the smell of fried onions and demolishing my sister on the Scrambler at the fall fair.
Utter perfection.

Faded yellow and orange leaves flittered as scents of cinnamon and mace perfumed the air.

“I love everything #autumnal — mums, pumpkin spice, and the bracing breeze.

“You can keep the cold weather, but not this hot cocoa.” He tossed marshmallows into the mug. #vss365

#autumnal
not yet old, no longer young
still spring in the step
some zest in the words
already storing some vinegar
to prepare for the winter
thinking of coming spring
never able to reach it
still thinking about it
in autumnal rain
#vss365

The weather cools
the leaves turn
an #autumnal change

The various festivals
cider and mead
apples and pumpkins

I love this time of year
the air is cool and dry
and my soul is at peace

(thank you for your prompts @tetrametracall1.bsky.social! 😁)

Dr. West checked her notes. “You have #autumnal anxiety. It’s like seasonal depression, but when people are nervous in the fall. It’s often connected to Halloween, but I haven’t found the source of yours yet.”

She paused to sip her pumpkin spice latte, and Greg ran away screaming.

The cloudless sky paired with a crispness in the air reminded me of a typical #autumnal day in the Southeastern United States. It was a perfect day for an outdoor holiday celebration. But I was galaxies away from Earth.

Would I ever see the colors change there again?

Autumnal memories
Soothe weariness
Restoring hope

#vss365 #autumnal

I do not know
when asked whither
I goest and when
I'm the wind just the wind
and I blow cause I can
I bring snow in the winter
Rain in the spring
In the summer
birds on my wing
My #autumnal flow
causes colors to blow
It's just out of control
everything

#Autumnal season hit the desert as the heat became cooler. The sycamore trees turned orange and yellow as Bailey made her usual walks in the base. When fall comes, then winter. Pumpkin spice to peppermint flavors. Holidays were often lonely for Cosmo and Bailey. #vss365

She walked outside and everything looked #autumnal. The seasons didn't change anymore. They were frozen in time until people found their humanity again. She campaigned heavily and still hoped for that day to come.

I've waited
nine months for this -
autumnal bliss,
alone on the park bench
with my coffee,
the crooning wind
all around me.
Yes, fine, you may
sit here but please
don't ruin it
by talking to me.

#Autumnal rolled from slumber sensing my disdain.
"You should know me well by now. And here I come again."

"You bring the frost; you bring the cold -- the winter's breath meant to dismember. I shit you not! We've not forgot.
"No. We the North remember."

70 degrees
We’re getting #autumnal!
The season aims to please
With falling leaves
And pumpkins

Everybody’s ready
For a change!
The feelings in our hearts
All rearrange!

A walk in a corn maze
Or a hike in the dark forest
The harvest moon up in the sky
And the cawing crows
In chorus!

She's a
Slow candle burning,
Wandering in
Russet and amber,
Aglow in #Autumnal glory,
The last blaze of summer,
Falling to ash and slumber;
She's a
Breathing library,
Gathered by time,
Burnished by
Each threshold
She crossed,
And now winter beckons
And she'll be
Swallowed by frost.
