The Cool Morning Air (Tanka)

The cool morning air
Dew clinging to window panes
How quickly things changed
Now that fall is upon us
First snow can’t be far behind

    Unless your in CA in which case, you can expect heat until November.

      I suppose that this one was more hopeful than anything else. I live in Arizona and its 89 degrees right now, I know exactly what you mean. :)

    Yep, my foot definitely agrees with this prediction.

      Those pains are certainly great indicators of things to come. :)

        I’d hoped at first that it was just my body being contrary, but my mom confirmed it with her own aches, which are both more numerous than my one and more accurate.

        Well, I’m starting to get my own aches and pains…welcome aging. :)

      Well cool was about 68 degrees this morning…not too cool in most peoples books, but a nice change none-the-less. :)

    This poem rekindles some of the joy I felt at the arrival of fall and the winter season when I was a small child.
    This poem is a really pleasant experience — kind of like a little repast from the past — thank you for the experience.

      My pleasure, this is about the most we get out here in Arizona for fall, but when I lived on the east coast this was more the norm. Thank you for the nice comment John.

    Oh no! You said the “S” word!!! ;)

    1. Dom DiFrancesco Avatar

      Oooo…the dreaded 4 letter “S” word SNOW. I don’t really have to worry to much about that, but I know that many of you do. :)

        Oh – YOU SAID IT AGAIN!!! ;)

        I’m going to have to wash my mouth out with soap. :)
