If life for you<br /> Been less than kind<br /> Take a number<br /> Stand in line<br /> We&#039;ve all been sorry<br /> We&#039;ve all been hurt<br /> But it&#039;s how we survive<br /> That makes us who we are<br /> - Survive by Rise Against

The crunching sensation
The broken silence of
The still cool air.

The rustle of every
Warm fall color
Under your feet.

The distant chirp
Of the far off chickadee.

The long distance hum
Of the highway.

These are the essences of autumn.
