Seasoned Flavor

October 14, 2015lillian

Summer by the sea,
two months past.
That sweet-sharp
salty lick of ocean air
gone.
Autumn in the city
dry lips
moistened
by warm apple cider
as eyes celebrate
glorious color.

Very positive spin on flavour, how they change with the seasons and how you can find beauty in each, and something to enjoy. Short and cool!
