Take me back

It is fall

The leaves have fallen

The burnt smell in the air as people cuddle by a fire

But take me back

Take me back to light blue breeze

And summer showers

Take me back to light brown sand in between my toes

Take me back to salty green and blue waters

Take me back to orange sunsets against the horizon

Take me back to picnics on wooden patios 

Take me back to sand in the car carpet

Take me back to baby powder to get sand off my skin

Take me back to sunscreen and dole whips

Take me back to breezy car rides and cold walks on the beach
