A cup of hot chocolate or tea enjoyed while sitting
Under a cozy throw or quilt.
Trees sporting colorful leaves. Leaves that get caught up and carried by the wind
Unrivaled in their grace as they dance toward the ground.
Meanwhile, birds continue their southern migration
Northbound once again when Spring arrives.

This would be fun for the kids to try! Thanks for the inspiration and for such beautiful praise for my favorite season!
You’re welcome. I always found that acrostics were something my students could handle without much difficulty.
Your autumn poem makes me want to have a go with the same fall theme. Living on a lake provides me with such fodder for this type of writing – and your poem provides a great mentor text.
I am sure that living on a lake at this time of year must provide loads of inspiration.
The first two lines got me in a second. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.
There is nothing like a cup of something hot to drink and a warm coverlet to snuggle under.
Love autumn, and your lovely acrostic. Leaves dancing is always a wonderful image.
You just cant beat the sights and smells of Autumn.
Autumn mornings are my favorite.
They are a great way to start the day.
We don’t have an autumn season here, I love to read about it and see the photos shared by so many blogger friends. Well written.
I really enjoy the sights and smells of the season.
Thank you, Aretha, for this beautiful poem. I count birds as some of my most beloved friends. I live at over 7,500 in a forest. I call it tree-house life. We get a plethora of beautiful birds here whose annual departures remind me all the more of the treasured gift they are. I’m always giddy when they return.

We always look forward to the return of robins in the spring.
I think you know that I would love this poem with its rich sensory appeal. Please take a photo of fall in PA so I can pair your poem to a scene for the #AbundantAutumn Gallery.
Once the leaves start changing I will take some pictures and get them to you.
That sounds like a good plan. Thank you.
