Fall-ing in Love

Crisp autumn air cracks and whips the windows through the trees.

Leaves like jewels are stolen and tossed violently in the breeze.

We have no cares because we're indoors, cozy as you please.

With a cuppa cocoa by the fire we're tangled at the knees.

We're snuggled up together, warming our bodies and our hearts.

It won't be long before the chill of winter and the holiday season starts.

But that doesn't worry me; it's my favorite time of year.

I'm thankful to share the long, cold, nights now that you are here.
