Autumn Delights

I see
A panoply
Of vibrant
Colors
Leaves
Crunch
Under foot
The chilly
Rain
Pours down
I love
Listening
To the falling
Rain
As I exhale
I see
My breath
Frozen
In suspension
I walk
Through
Schenley Park
Above me
Birds fly
I see
Squirrels
And chipmunks
Finally
I arrive back
On our street
Several homes
Have smoke
Coming out of
The chimneys
It brings back
Many fond
Memories
When I open
Our front door
My Golden Retriever
Greets me
I fall asleep
Dreaming of my
Adventure
