these seasons MAG
these seasons are filled with warm, happy things:
flannel shirts, plaid
marching across the fabric in assorted colors
the prospect of apple picking,
their soft, blushed surfaces
as crisp as the air around them
bonfires, rising from the ground
in fleeting fingers of flame
and tendrils of smoke reaching
Jack o' lanterns, mouths agape
leering and grinning,
a mischievous light dancing in their eyes
leaves racing across the ground,
tumbling over one another
in a rush of crunchy sounds and the smell of earth
yet, my mind and heart and soul
are damp and chilly and flat
lacking
come home, my love
