My Autumn Favorites

* Beautiful, bright gold, red, magenta, chocolate and pumpkin colored leaves against a bird egg blue sky
* My brother's apple cider, spicy tea and
hot chocolate

* Autumn Woods and Harvest Yankee candles
* Pumpkins in all shapes and sizes
* Walks in the cool, crisp air with my love...or a moonlit walk
* New snuggly flannel sheets
* Pumpkin patches and corn mazes
* Caramel apples, hot apple pie and caramel popcorn
* Toasting marshmallows on a campfire
* Time spent as a family laughing and playing
* God our wonderful creator

Autumn

The morns are meeker than they were,
The nuts are getting brown;
The berry's cheek is plumper,
The rose is out of town.

The maple wears a gayer scarf,
The field a scarlet gown.
Lest I should be old-fashioned,
I'll put a trinket on.
