I Won't Miss...




I must remember
the
things I won’t miss
like
the way autumn paints in sienna and crimson,
sun warmed skin on an Indian summer afternoon in October,
smelling brisk wind whisking through freshly fallen leaves,
or
sweater weather,
biting into a Honey Crisp covered in caramel,
pungent bonfire smoke
or

seeing my breath for the first time this year,
single snowflakes escaping,
reminding myself I don’t miss you.

This word was freaking HARD (and I probably didn't even get it right)! 

33-333 words for the third definition of Remember:
3 a :  to keep in mind for attention or consideration    b :  REWARD <was remembered in the will>
