The dog days have waned…
The mornings have a bit of a chill…
The first days of Autumn are upon us…
While I stood with a cup in hand…
A brief gush of air upon my cheek…
A gentle sound upon the sidewalk…
A single leaf laid near my feet…
Its shape made me smile and even chuckle…
It was then I began to see her features…
The outline of her chin followed by her cheeks…
A little button of a nose…
Eyes I will never forget…
A top her forehead…
A series of styles and colors…
Her ears…
And then her neck…
Where her scent invited my lips…
