Leaves drift gently, a quiet fall,
Gold and crimson, nature’s call.
The air, invigorating, starts to chill,
As summer fades, and time stands still.
Branches sway with stories old,
Of laughter bright and memories bold.
Beneath the gray, the skies expand,
As we seek peace in autumn’s hand.
With every gust, a memory flows,
Of moments cherished where friendship grows.
In dusk’s embrace, the world transforms,
We find our heart in autumn’s warmth.
