harvest
heavy and round,
happiness
in fall, even the apples
have stars

Notes: Hope your Halloween was safe, happy and full of treats. We all ate too much chocolate at my house. Happy Poetry Friday and thanks to Jama at Jama’s Alphabet Soup for hosting!

I didn’t find those stars until my children showed me. 🙂 Elementary school teachers know amazing things these days…

The apples were delicious. My specialty is the apple crisp, so we need a lot of apples.
