I haven't always loved Fall. It's probably because, in New Jersey, Fall feels like Winter sometimes. But since coming down to Wake Forest in North Carolina, I have these new feelings for Fall and a newfound appreciation for this wonderful season! Here is what Fall feels like to me!

Fall feels like lots of happy family time

Fall feels like fleece-lined leggings tucked into boots

Fall feels like Summer in North Carolina sometimes

Fall sounds crunchy like the leaves on the ground

Fall feels like cuddles and putting your toes on the heater

Fall feels like Fireball without a chaser

Fall feels like the first bite of a Honeycrisp apple

Fall looks like trees celebrating with vibrant orange

Fall sounds like the crackle of wood in the fire

Fall feels like a soft, black cat rubbing up against your leg

Fall feels like sleeping under four blanket

Fall feels intimate like a really great poem

Fall feels calm like a lake

Fall feels like a gulp of cool water after a long run

Fall feels like a butterfly in her cocoon

Fall feels like hopping in a warm shower

Fall smells like breathing in homemade chicken soup

Fall feels like kisses in the morning

Fall feels like cozy socks in the afternoon

But Fall inevitably feels like Winter at night, which I used to hate, but now reminds me of home.
