Today is the first day of the autumn equinox
AUTUMN
by Christopher Brennan
Autumn: the year breathes dully towards its death,
beside its dying sacrificial fire;
the dim world´s middle-age of vain desire
is strangely troubled, waiting for the breath
that speaks the winter´s welcome malison
to fix it in the unremembering sleep:
the silent woods brood o´er an anxious deep,
and in the faded sorrow of the sun,
I see my dreams´ dead colours, one by one,
forth-conjur´d from their smouldering palaces,
fade slowly with the sigh of the passing year.
They wander not nor wring their hands nor weep,
discrown´d belated dreams! but in the drear
and lingering world we sit among the trees
and bow our heads as they, with frozen mouth,
looking, in ashen reverie, towards the clear
sad splendour of the winter of the far south.

I love autumn... unfortunately we don´t get much of it here at all - if any!  But I have great memories of autumn in Poland... oh... nostalgia... 
The beautiful colors of the trees, the chilly weather that´s not too cold yet, but you can get that warm sweater out of the closet and sit in the evening with a cup of hot chocolate... the walks to the woods to pick mushrooms... the thought of snow and Christmas coming...

No bother
But I have to tell you Cat´s image of golden leaves and sweater-temperature is a bit idyllic You may also want to imagine heavy rains, grey, cloudy days and chilly temperatures. I miss Polish autumns
