| AUTUMN FUN REMINDERS OF CHILDHOOD JOYS AND FUN ON A STROLL THROUGH INTERNET PROSE AND PUNS. THIS TIME OF YEAR BRINGS THOUGHTS OF PLAY IN PILES OF RAINBOW COLORED LEAVES THAT YOU RAKE. WITH PUMPKINS BRIGHT AND ORANGE TO SELL SOME TO MAKE FUNNY FACES TO PALE. THE SCRUMPTIOUS PIES THAT ARE BAKED TO MAKE TASTE BUDS COME AWAKE. SOON THE SMELL OF CINNAMON AND GINGER IN THE AIR FOR ALL THE GOODIES THAT ARE MADE TO SHARE. PREMATURE MY THOUGHTS SEEM, BUT TIMES ESCAPES THE HOLIDAYS WILL ARRIVE DESPITE OUR DELAYS. THE NIP IN THE AIR THAT REMINDS ME OF FRESHNESS THE STALE AIR OF SUMMER HAS BEEN OPPRESSED. I'VE SEEN FROGS THAT ARE USING ABODES THAT ARE MANMADE SCATTERED THROUGHOUT MY GARDEN THEY LAY. THE SCAVENGER BIRDS THAT STAY BEHIND IN WINTER ARE ALREADY FLOCKING AND ROOSTING NEAR BY. TO SWOOP DOWN AND GRAB EVERY EARTHWORM AND SEED THEY CAN SPY AS THEY GLIDE OVERHEAD WITH THE GREATEST OF EASE. FALL FESTIVALS AT CHURCHES FOR KIDS AND EVERYONE THE CAKE WALK IS ALWAYS A FAVORITE ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU GET TO PICK ONE THE CHILDREN PLAY GAMES AND MAKE CRAFTS WHILE OTHERS ARE GETTING THINGS READY TO RAFFLE. THE AUCTION IS A FAVORITE TIME OF MINE TO WATCH ONE BUY A CAKE FOR 49.(.DOLLARS THAT IS.........) NO NEED TO BE TIGHT, IT'S THE LORDS NIGHT RAISING MONIES TO USE IN THE FIGHT. HAYRIDES ARE ALWAYS A TREAT, SITTING ON A TRAILER ON STACKS OF WHEAT FIFTY CENTS A RIDE WILL TAKE ALL AROUND THE BLOCK, NOW IT'S TIME TO EAT THE BARBEQUE PIG THAT HAS BEEN COOKING SINCE EARLY MORN, IS NOW READY TO SAMPLE AND SPREAD AROUND IN PLATES OF FOAM. WHAT A GREAT DAY EVERYONE HAS HAD WITH ALL FAMILY ACTIVITIES ALL OF THE DAY AND TIME COMES TO CALL EVERYONE TO ORDER, GET A COMFORTABLE SEAT, TO LISTEN TO GOOD OLD GOSPEL MUSIC NOW THAT'S QUITE A TREAT.
