No Spring nor Summer Beauty hath such grace
As I have seen in one Autumnal face.
John Donne
Elegy IX–The Autumnal
I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.
― L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables
I cannot endure to waste anything so precious as autumnal sunshine by staying in the house.
We fall for beauty
we fall for love
we fall for promises
and empty words.
We jump for beauty
we jump for love
we jump to promises
we jump at a word.
With nothing to catch us
to guide us back down
we jump and fall
for anything, everything
except for
ourselves.
