Fall is in the air...

So, this is my first blog-posting ever, so bear with me people... I was feeling a bit Fall-ish today and thought I'd revert back to my high school days and write a poem in honor of Fall. You are all welcome to laugh at my typos, mistakes and general cheesiness that I'm afraid will inevitably be a part of this rambling little sonnet.


Fall

Gray skies,
Pumpkin Pies,
Crisp Autumn air,
Leaves falling - everywhere!
Thanksgiving Day draws near,
Is it already this time of year?
Apples for baking,
Leaves for raking,
Time for maple syrup and candy?
Keep the napkins handy!
The harvesting has begun,
From rising to setting sun,
The cooking, baking and canning,
The get-togethers, the planning!
Drink in the sweetness of the air,
And of the time be ever aware,
For Fall shall quickly come and go,
Ushering in winter, ice and snow!



Ok, so that's all I have so far. I just wanted to give this blogging thing a try and if any of you have any pointers, helpful hints, critiques, etc. I'm all ears!

Blessings!
