Autumn Morn<

This morning I felt the mist
As it lingered among the trees.
The air was clean and damp against my skin.
My face embraced the tendrils as they stroked and slid along
on their journey to where ever.
I watched the sun kiss the treetops
And the will o' the wisp turned to shimmering diamond drops
Hanging like jeweled tears from the branches.
The world slowly awoke and embraced the day.
