Maybe

Maybe it’s the chill in the air
Or the smell of autumn’s spice
As the leaves and grass withers away
Maybe it’s the way the cool breeze
Sends the hair on the back of your neck straight up
And sends goose bumps up your arms
Maybe it’s the fresh scent of rain
On a dark day that accents the orange and black
Halloween décor adorning every other house
Or maybe, it’s just me
As I sit in my house with the windows open
And eagerly wait for Halloween to arrive
