All the seasons have a particular reason for the earth’s different purposes. Some season's are highly favored by people above others, but they are all wonderful to enjoy. Fall and winter do have their ups and downs but they are my favorite seasons. “I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape - the loneliness of it, the dead feeling of winter. Something waits beneath it, the whole story doesn't show.” This quote reflects my exact feelings of how I feel about fall and winter.



Crunch, crunch; the soft sound from slow steps I took on the recently fallen leaves. Red, Orange, and yellow fill one with anticipation for a crisp and peaceful fall. The rich earth-tone colors of fall are a nice contrast to summers bright and vibrant shades. During the fall the sun smiles down and one realizes; it is time for a change.There are many thrilling events to enjoy in fall. Halloween is one of Fall’s many activities that help build not only mine, but children’s excitement for wearing disguises allowing their inner self’s to be exposed; receiving delicious candy that also later causes stomach aches. With every doorbell that rings inceases each neighbor’s curiosity and delight for what ever each child is dressed as. The fall holidays leave every one craving for more.Everyone who appreciates what it holds can enjoy autumn.


Winter’s blank yet elegant scenery acts as a comforter the gives the earth it’s hush. The soft pastel colors of winter give me the feeling of calmness and fill me up with wonder and delight of the things that I observe around me. Children having snowball fights, the building of snowmen, receiving presents, lights on houses and stockings above the fire place; are some of the things that come to my mind in winter. Holidays bring families and neighbors closer together. Christmas fills ones heart with love and appreciation for what they have, while raising the waves of excitement for what will soon be.


Over all, fall and winter are relaxing and enjoyable. I have a certain excitement held in reserve for them because they are my favorite seasons. They can be a benefit to everyone if one can keep an open mind and appreciate the scenery around them.
