Autumn MAG
October 21, 2021
Slow, smooth jazz
Rain drizzling down
Caramel cocoa with whipped cream
A cozy oversized blue sweater that fits just right
With so much fabric on the sleeves that it gets bunched up in your hands.
Loose curls under a cream beanie that comes over your ears.
Red jeans and snazzy little ankle boots that click when the heels connect with the wet pavement
Damp autumn leaves
clustered in rain gutters
Outside the cafe window
A notebook and a soft smile.
Crisp autumn air and holidays you don’t want to end.
Subtle, easy conversation.
A poem that feels unfinished because it is.
