As vibrancy begins to fade; green to brown,
and the winds simmer to a boil before settling down to cool,
our hearts settle with it.
Our hearts beat in sync with the falling leaves.
Minds rustling about with the wrestling flora hanging on for as long as they can.
During it's peak, we almost lose our paths as they're covered by the fallen life.
Eyes searching, hands twitching, minds racing.
We rake the leaves, finding our journey once again.
The howling winds a soothing chime to our ears as we find warmth within each other.
And with that the cycle begins anew.
Though in this particular cycle, we have a hand to hold throughout.
That is how we come to remember,
that Autumn has arrived.
