Well, there is that whole "back to school" thing tainting the poetry of autumn, but my favorite part of this season is getting up in the morning and walking to my bus stop. The sun is just coming up and birds are singing. The air is cool and smells like falling leaves and that inexplicable sweetness that is always in the air. I always just take a moment to stop at the corner and look up, appreciating how beautiful it is.

I also plan to, when the leaves fall, rake a big pile of them and jump in them. One of the things my inner child and I love to do together.

And for all of you who are burned out because of school or work, just buy some apple cider, pour a mug full, and put a cinnamon stick in it. Then heat it in your microwave for 1 minute and 30 seconds. Can't get more fall-ish than that.
