What I Love Most About Autumn: Life Returning to the Earth

What do I love the most about Autumn?

I love the fruit of autumn.

I love cooking with the fruit of autumn.

I love the first fire I build in autumn.

I love putting on the first sweater in Autumn.

What I love is primarily intangible.

I love the smell of autumn, the returning of the leaves to the ground to be rained upon and returned to soil, naturally.

I love the light of autumn – the slant of dawn and dusk, gentler than Summer, less sleepy than Winter.

I love the energy of autumn, the quiet stepping into a new year, not to all the pizzazz of January 1, but instead the quiet choice to make it a new year, untainted by calendar’s and hype.
