Formula for Fall

Time for a new poetic form. Today's challenge: write an original tercet on an autumnal theme. Tercet: A complete poem of three lines. It can be of any length, meter, or rhyme scheme.


Out came the sweaters, their boxes
Restocked with sheer blouses, blithe skirts.
Forecast this morning read eighty...

Better get home before dark, before the nip gets in the air, because the top is down and the doors are in the garage.

For Washburn:

Double overtime, extra point at stake: Tiffon's kick
sails wide right past the goal post and the AR fans
go HOG wild! Woo Pig Sooie!!!

Crap. "Kick" was supposed to fit on the first line.

Dearest L,


Time marches on and yet
You bring me back to that fateful day
Why dost thou taunt me so?
