Autumn Air

Autumn is coming. I could feel it today. It may be a cliché to say it, I mean it obviously is coming, but some year it is more obvious than others and some moments you can just feel it more. Like today. Or rather, this evening. In the very late afternoon, there was not even a breeze, yet the air was cool and smelled of wet wood and old leaves. It is difficult to describe, like a bittersweet smell, but is felt definitely autumnal. Even the fading lights had this autumnal look, something always a bit eerie. We won't have to wait much longer now. And I am very glad.
