SLIDESHOW: How Maine Experiences Fall

October 30, 2025

Abby Washburn, Writer

The air is chilly 

There is wind, and a thought of frost, 

Maybe even snow. 

From green, leaves turn red 

Gracefully fluttering down 

Landing on the ground

(Abby Washburn).

Crunch them underfoot 

Or jump into a big pile 

As you stroll along

To have a sweet taste 

Lets eat pumpkin spice things, or 

Cinnamon apple.

(Abby Washburn).

Birds are flying south

Bears eat fruit, squirrels storing nuts

To prep for winter 

This, of course, is fall 

Looking like a post card here:

Small town New England
