welcome to bliss

I adore Autumn. 
Beautiful. Crisp. Clean. Colorful. Chilly. Cozy. Delicious. 
Blissful. Addictive. Enchanting. Tranquil. Whimsical.  Perfect.
Everything about fall entices me, 
its cacophony of deep rich colors continually whispers to me,
 constantly reminding me that the time for cuddling, sweaters, cinnamon, boots, hats, hot cocoa, toast, nightmare before Christmas, long socks, 
caramel apples, pumpkin carving, yellow, leaf raking,  is at hand . 
 Consuming me in all it holds, all it is. 
Washing over me like the first rain of the season, warming me from my fingers to my toes, and all the places in between.   
A fire taking root in my heart, warming all the sadness and grief away.
 A blessing, an answer to my prayer, a reason to smile in this hard time. Bliss.
