The Five Senses of Autumn



OSU Stillwater, OK
Feat. a stranger called Cole
The n is silent
When the leaves are singin’
People are quieter
In whisper season
Pianos are being played
        But they don’t mind

Heat on the tongue
Spices demand attention
Coffee wears sleeves
Because cold’s pretension
Popular Cucurbita pepo
      Because it is prettier

Smoke fills lungs
Bonfires perfume clothes
Cider’s fragrance crawls
In secrets fall enclose
The essence of nostalgia
            And it is sweet

Cozy is familiar again
Leather pages read
Fluffy warm pillows
Thrown on trundle beds
Cuddle is acceptable
            Yet over due
           
Dust acknowledged
The vibrate leaves glow
Fabrics, textures, colors
Dress human chateaus
The vision of chills
            For the polaroids
