Reasons Why Autumn Is the Best Season
Fall is my favorite season. All the leaves from the trees and plants change into multi-colored works of art and fall away. It creates bare, and vulnerable branches, revealing the true scenery underneath.
It also represents a beautiful cycle of loss, regeneration and regrowth once the spring season comes around.
The dead leaves and branches on the ground disintegrate and turn into part of the soil, which are used as seeds and fertilizer later once the cold welcomes the warmer weather.
There are many reasons why I love fall and why I think it's the best season, but here are just a few.
The trees change color
In the southern part of the United States, all the seasons are very apparent. The spring season is very green, the summer is very hot, the winter very cold and the fall is full of magnificent colors.
The maple trees are especially vibrant with colors of red, golden yellow and combinations of both.
When I was younger we called them "tree stars" from the movie "Land Before Time" and to this day they are my favorite trees when the season changes.
This season is perfect for taking beautiful scenic photos and spending time outdoors. Nothing can relax and rejuvenate more than enjoying nature and the surrounding scenery.
The weather is perfect
With cooler temperatures rolling in, saying goodbye to summer and hello to fall is not a hard thing to do. It's a great time to break out the jackets, coats, boots, scarves and hats in preparation for the change in season.
It's also the perfect time to start making hot cocoa, and lighting a fire in the fireplace. This season creates a sense of comfort, warmth and reflection.
It's a great time to go camping, fishing, go on a road trip or anything else where you can spend quality time with family and eat good food.
The Mist and All Poem
I like the fall,
The mist & all.
I like the night owl's
Lonely call
And wailing sound
Of wind around.I like the gray
November day,
And bare, dead boughs
That coldly sway
Against my pane.
I like the rain.
I like to sit
And laugh at it
And tend
My cozy fire a bit.
I like the fall
The mist and all.author, Dixie Willson
It brings back memories
Fall was my mother's favorite season, and every year when it rolls around it creates a flood of memories and reminds me of the beautiful person she was.
She used to quote this poem from Dixie Willson, all the time, but even more so when the autumn was in full swing.
It's one of the many things I learned from her when I was young, that poems have a way of capturing your soul and uncovering a deeper connection within yourself.
Her demeanor changed when the weather started getting cooler, she would spend more and more time outdoors.
She had a sense of peace and thankfulness that I hope to convey to those around me.
It's full of family holidays
Autumn is one of the most packed holiday seasons. There's the back to school rush, Halloween, Thanksgiving and of course Christmas.
But it's not just full of regular holidays, these are all very involved, family centered holidays.
This is a season to be thankful, and to be surrounded by the people you love.
It's a perfect time to change up your decorations, add orange, red and yellow colors and pull out the spice scented candles.
To think over the past year, what you've been through, the memories you've made together and to look forward to a new and exciting year.
Another reason I love the holidays is for the food. You generally won't eat nearly as good during this season compared to the rest of the year.
Autumn is not only the best time of year, out of all four seasons but it's also the most scenic and beautiful if you love being outdoors. It's all about family, food and creating memories.
What season do you love the best and why?

The essay is magnificent !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fantastic ....
I agree with Ane

Better than the spring.
Fall is also my favorite season because you can stay inside and snuggle. You can get to bed at 7pm without hearing any noise. It gets dark earlier. The cold represents the warmer season. The leaves are also very beautiful and colorful.
Nice season
Wonderful essay
Let me just tell you I LOVE how you wrote this. And you are right fall is the best season ever. Fall is definetly the most wonderful time of the year!! :)
amazing story
And don't forget the awesome fall makeup trends! Matte dark lipstick, winged liner, and matte foundation!!! (I might wear that all year round lol)
autumn is my favourite season.i love it very much as i can.i write a book about autumn too.your essay also very beautiful as real sense of the word.good bye.
I live in the Northeast U.S., so summer is my favorite time of year. Generally not too hot here all summer long. In September I go all melancholy and it's hard to avoid feelings of depression. However, I do agree that the scenery is exquisite and it's a good time to do outdoor things before the cold of winter sets in. I absolutely LOVED the poem your Mom taught you! Going to keep that one! Great hub!
no way spring is a hell of a lot better
best season of the world.I love fall .I like the beauty of fall .
THANKS

Thank you for the wonderful comments! I love this season :)
We don't have much of a Fall in FL so I appreciate the photos and this hub! Up/Awesome/Beautiful:)
we don't much experience fall in the country where I live, nice hub voted up
ah... applecsmith! I thought about you and this hub today. I got to drive through the Napa Valley today on my way to Cobb Mountain. The grapes in the valley are all starting to turn their winter colors... but the maples on the way to Cobb were in awesome display. Great hub!

Thank you for the amazing comments. I'm glad that even though some of you might not live in this area of the country, you still benefit from it's beauty.
Admiral - so glad you understood my reference to "tree stars" :)
Excellent post! Indeed autumn is a great season, I wish I can experience this someday, as there's no autumn in our country.=) Hey Applecsmith, I'm also a great fan and follower of The Land Before Time and their favorite "Tree stars". It was a great movie. 1 vote up and beautiful.
Autumn season has always proven out to be best for me for past 7 years . Hope this story continues for me in future as well. Very nicely explained hub. Images out there are very colorful and so full of life. Thanks
Beautiful! It is absolutely the best!
I've always like fall.When I was young I did outside stuff like paint the house.
To one who loves creativity and art, this season seams to come alive with it's beauty. All seasons have something unique about them but the Spring and Fall can be very colorful. Lovely photos. Voted Up! Take Care :)

I too like the comfortable temperatures, and yes the lovely colours of leaves. Great for picture taking. I voted this hub beatiful. Thank you for sharing!
I agree- autumn is the best season! I've always been enchanted by the beauty of the leaves changing color. Yet, living in Hawaii, I've never been able to experience it in person. Definitely on my bucket list! Beautiful hub ;)
Lovely hub. I grew up in Thailand where most trees are evergreen. The first year I moved to the U.S., I was really amazed to see a bunch of trees changing color. :)
Great photos! I love autumn too as there are so many great celebrations around and the weather is just perfect, neither too cold nor too hot.
Yes! Bravo on this fall season essay! :) To have one's mother quote such a poem--how lovely! Beautiful hub in every way--thank you for sharing it with us. Voted up.
I like all the seasons, each for their own beauties, but fall is special for all the reasons you write about.

Thank you for the great comments. I hope everyone gets the opportunity to see the fall season in East Texas sometime in their life. It's breathtaking!
The colors in that first photograph are just magnificient. I hope our trees are that colorful this year in IL. Autumn is hands-down my favorite season.
The trees don't show as much color down here as they do up north...but it is still a beautiful time of year. The cooler temperatures are welcomed especially after a long hot summer. You have given some great reasons why it is your favorite time of year and I'm sure that many people will agree.
I love Autumn! You have explained the topic very well.
Beautiful images! Fall is so colorful - wish we could experience it in South Texas :(

I couldn't agree more! Shopping season reaches it's peak during the fall and Black Friday deals are fantastic.
I enjoy the smells, sounds and tastes of fall so much. Reading all these great comments has made my day, thanks a bunch.
Fall is definitely my favorite season. It is the most comfortable weather for me. The winds are just right and the air is scented with falling leaves and earthy pumpkins and squash. Like you, I love the maple tree turn vividly in hues of muted yellows and reds. Materially, I look forward to this season because this is the time of the year that I truly shop for next year's summer stuff and other things on Black Fridays. Like you, the fall is the start of frequent family gatherings. Still, it is relaxing ... The smell of coffee brewing is more intoxicating at this time, so with hot cocoa, served with a bit of peppermint and mini-marshmallows. I also love Fall because of Thanksgiving. This is a breathtaking hub, I could go on and on why I love Fall. Thanks!
Fall is definitely the most beautiful season. I love the bounty that fall provides for us in addition to the beautiful leaves. Thank you for sharing such wonderful thoughts about fall.
Fall is my favorite season too! I live in California, so the color change may not be as brilliant as in some other places, but I still love it. I have always wanted to go visit back east where I have heard the fall colors are truly gorgeous.
Autumn is my favorite season too. Not just for all the beauty in color, but also for the fact that autums is harvest time for many of our farm produce and fruits.
I love autumn, too! Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

It's so nice to hear that everyone else loves the fall season like I do. It's a great time to take photos, enjoy the weather and reminisce.
I almost love spring as much as fall, but not quite. Thanks for the great comments.
Autumn is absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately, we don't have it here in Southeast Asia. Instead, we enjoy/suffer rainy and dry seasons throughout the year. It's the tropical paradise but it would be fantastic to experience the Autumn months!
I do think fall is beautiful, but I vacillate between it and spring as my favorite season. Fall reminds me that winter is coming, and I loathe winter. Spring gives me hope that warmer, brighter days are coming. Still, the colors of fall are incredible. And the poem is adorable. Very nice hub! I voted many things on this one!
I agree Fall is the best season not too hot and not too cold. My husband loves it also. The thing that I really don't like is the sun goes down early and I can't enjoy more the temperature outside , cook outs and look at nature at its best. I still love Fall second to Spring, then Summer last is Winter. Your pictures are very beautiful thanks.
I also wrote a hub on this same subject. It seems to be most everyones favorite. Love you pics and article. I could just feel your excitement. Enjoy.....
Nice pictures used! Fall is easily my favorite season, beautiful scenery, that perfect "not to hot, not to cold weather", and, of course, Halloween is in the Fall, love Halloween!
Fall is my favorite season! I got my camera ready this year and waiting for the leaves to change, then I can publish a Photo Journey! I am lucky to live in New England! Great Hub! Voting up and sharing!

Best Season EVER!! I love Autumn!
I hear you. I absolute love autumn as well. Something about it reminds me of simpler times, back when I was a kid and Fall meant going back to school. My favorite is Saturday afternoon, when the sun is starting to head under the horizon and the afternoon sky feels hazy. It's like bright but not bright at the same time. The air smells crisp and life just comes to a stand still.
But to be honest with you I love all the seasons for different reasons.
I love the Autumn months. I enjoy the way the trees change and the weather can be warm and cool at the same time. The sky is full of geese and clouds and the wind is a flutter with all that nature must do to prepare for winter. A really great hub Applecsmith! very well written and full of wisdom.
When the sun is out Autumn is beautiful, unfortunately that doesn't happen much in the UK!
