summer season is coming to a close
school busses were on the road at 6:30 am
leaves are tinged with red & orange
my primroses have returned with the cool in the air

I cannot endure to waste anything so precious as autumnal sunshine by staying in the house
Nathaniel Hawthorne
Autumn is the mellower season
and what we lose in flowers we more than gain in fruits
Samuel Butler
we would sing and dance around
because we know we can't be found
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus' garden in the shade
because we know we can't be found
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus' garden in the shade
he found himself wondering at times
especially in the autumn
about the wild lands
and strange visions of mountains
that he had never seen
came into his dreams
J.R.R. Tolkien
Fall has always been my favorite season
the time when everything bursts with its last beauty
as if nature had been saving up all year for the grand finale
Lauren DeStefano
Autumn...the year's last loveliest smile.
