autumnal

it's been too long since colors and wind and cool air and sky
give me rakes and the pile of leaves full of kids and laughter and leaves in their hair
give me feet numb with cold from wrestling on the trampoline after dark
give me night falling faster cold bright stars in the blackness
give me sweaters and rain and a book and hot tea
give me bowls and pans and warm light and pumpkin bread and muffins and toasted pumpkin seeds
give me the hot open fire and football on the tv safe inside from the chill of dusk
give me bonfires and marshmallows a face too hot and feet too cold
give me that clear vibrant blue sky not a cloud within sight
give me pumpkins and candles and mountains and journals 
but most of all give me fall
