Autumn Morn<

This morning I felt the mist

As it lingered among the trees.



The air was clean and damp against my skin.

My face embraced the tendrils as they stroked and slid along

on their journey to where ever.



I watched the sun kiss the treetops

And the will o' the wisp turned to shimmering diamond drops

Hanging like jeweled tears from the branches.



The world slowly awoke and embraced the day.
