Scents

Red, round, crisp, fragrance
  falling, tumbling, swirling down
Warmth, pungent, sweet air
  chopping, filling, adding in
Sky, wind, earth drops
  floor, counter, utensils make
This crisp round day of taste
  smell the filling air with cold
A return to preparation for
  what is unexpected in the bowl
Mixed with spices and sweet
  a harkening to celebration
Past and yet to come, in the hands
  which have done this way for years
Those just beginning and the fullness 
  of the smiles given for a taste
