" Autumn's Embrace"

At last the Summer's existence
Has left for it's hiding place
Until it's return next year
Now we have Autumn's grace

How sacred and sweet the colours be
Brilliant in all its charm
Crisp and clear the air is
Just a sight for all to feel and see

As the sun 's light shimmers
Perhaps for a day or two
The rain and early dusk
Reveals the old and new

Harvest what gifts are before you
Smile and Laugh with delight
While thankfulness and reflectiveness
Are most impressive upon the gaze
Of the celestial moon's light

The leaves dance in the wind
Acorns cry as they hit the ground
Smokey scents scour the air
Such things are profound

Time to take stock
Learn and behold
Love and receive
No matter how young or old

Grasp the notion of what it's all about
Find your niche in this place
Gather your spirited soul
And there before you
Is Autumn's Embrace...

I am also an Autumn lover so really enjoyed this.  I think there is something in the comforting chill of this season that consoles a poets heart!
