Our last walk through the fall leaves

The wind is picking up, and leaves will be blown all over the place.

Leaving nothing the same

But as long as you’re beside me, our fall walks will always be my favorite.

Yes, it’s cold, but seeing the joy on your face when a leaf falls from a tree and twirls a little dance for us before rising on the ground is priceless.

It’s one of my favorite moments. It’s like watching you when you’re younger, playing in the leaves with no care in the world.

And I knew that the carefree girl was meant for me. I would treasure her for as long as possible, and I am still lucky enough to walk beside you.

Brightest

mywords2228

I am aw by the reds and bright oranges all around me.

It has me lighting up inside like a little kid at Christmas time.

I can’t get enough, and I hope to capture its beauty before winter.

But only nature knows when the last leaf will fall.

But I will now enjoy the beautiful colors and let them fill me with joy!

Oh, how nice it is to be in a new month

After the last one, it was great for me.

Although the weather is a little weird this time of year, holiday movies are everywhere, and it’s great to relax and watch them.

After a brief vacation, I’m ready to relax and enjoy life with a new level of joy and motivation.

I am so thankful to be able to step into this month with encouragement. I hope it will be great, and I believe it, too.

To be

 Able to take a ride on a day like today is great.

Just riding on the crisp leaves down the street as I enjoy the view of my neighborhood.

Just knowing these days will be fewer as we truly get into the fall season.

And winter soon comes knocking at our door.

But for now I will focus on what a great day it is to be outside and enjoying my free time.

With nothing

 To rush off too

For the first time in days.

I’m gonna just let the wind blow and just breath in and out for a second.

For I feel no stress or anxiety to get things done.

I can truly enjoy the weather and the day before a storm or colder weather blow in.

For once I can just let my hair down and enjoy the little moments in life that truly make life worth the struggle we face some times.

Fall is not

about me and how cute I’m dressed but about the changing of the seasons and all the holidays that people are celebrating.

It’s the time to evaluate how you’ve been living since the new year begun and what your going to do before it ends.

This is the time to make that change and to step out of your comfort zone and make a big  decision in your life.

But also to finally think before you jump  because you want to be somewhere that makes you feel good and doesn’t make you feel like your on the edge of finally cracking and ending up like humpty dumpty who even put back together again was not ever the same.

I don’t want to just fall this fall I want to fly away from the troubles and pains of this year and come out on top again because what is the point of setting goals and having dreams if you don’t do anything about it.

So this fall is about nature and about making a difference  before it too late and all you end up with is regrets.

Fall

You’re having so many mood swings with the weather being so cold then warm and then rain.

Yet, I still the beauty in you as the colorful leaves fall to the ground and spread out all over the place.

The smell of crisp leaves and the chill around me warns me of colder days but, for now I will enjoy what you give me Mother Nature.

As I enjoy this time of year and this moment in my daily walks.

I hope to keep you leaf and hope to keep you safe even if it’s just for a while.

It’s getting

mywords2228

 

Cold outside and all I want to do is stay inside and wrap myself in a blanket.

I don’t want to wake up and deal with the day.

For the moment I walk out the door I’m slapped with the cold air and the powerful wind.

And all I can think of is going back to sleep and getting as far away from this coldness.

As fast as I can physically can.

For being in this cold air for too long and my mind is all foggy and all I see is darkness as my eye close.

Coldness I don’t appreciate the cold air you blow my way and in the end I can do without you.

You have arrived but I have yet the time to enjoy you.

i remember the days when  I would play outside and enjoy our time together.

How I would swing on that old tire swing with no care in the world.

Just lost in my thoughts with nowhere to go.

Just enjoying the weather and this moment where I’m free to breathe and truly know this day will be a good one.

Oh Fall don’t go by so quickly now for I would love to enjoy you just a little more.
