Welcome back to White Rose of Avalon, my Darlings. For today’s blog post, I have decided to share a poem about taking a walk in late Autumn!
Crunching Leaves and Mulled Cider
by Maranda Wabik
The smell of Autumn all around
The crunch of leaves does surround
A warm cup of cider in hand
Make this walk through the land
A delightful display of Autumnal joy
An energy with which I love to toy
Cinnamon’s scent lingers in the air
On this Autumnal walk so fair
Clove and All Spice enter the scene
As my walk takes me past the bakery
Oh, what a dream
As simple as it may seem
A beautiful walk in late Autumn
Full of crunching leaves and mulled cider
Is sometimes just what the spirit needs
To feel attuned with Mother Nature!

What a lovely and cozy poem, Maranda! You’ve perfectly captured the essence of a perfect late autumn day. I could almost hear the crunch of the leaves and smell that wonderful mix of cinnamon, clove, and allspice from the bakery.
My favorite part is the closing thought: that such a simple walk is “just what the spirit needs to feel attuned with Mother Nature.” It’s so true. Your poem is a beautiful reminder to slow down and appreciate the sensory joys of the season.
Thank you for sharing this delightful piece of Autumnal joy! It truly brightened my day. I’m already looking forward to your next post
I am absolutely delighted that you enjoyed my poem so much! I am so glad to know that my poetry can brighten other people’s days. As always, thank you for reading and commenting!
You are most welcome Maranda 🌷🤝
