A Sense of Autumn

For the Sensational II challenge

By Heather Zieffle Published about a year ago Updated about a year ago 1 min read
DALL E 3

I spy with my little eye a fairy wind in the meadow.

Her song is sweet as she tosses up leaves,

and her fragrant wind is full of memories.

I shiver as her chilled wind flips my hair about,

and my taste buds water at the breezy hint of cinnamon.
