The Splendour Of Autumn
The days, they seem much shorter,
the nights begin to chill,
there's smoke haze in the valleys,
as Autumns colors thrill.
The trees are in transition,
there foliage loss profound,
the twirl of burnished colors,as
their cloaks become earthbound.
The raining leaves fall gently,
like spindles twirling round,
they form a patchwork blanket,
thrown softly on the ground.
As sunlight tips the branches,
leaves shine like gems of gold,
with shades of red and scarlet,
soft winds unleash their hold.
The changes of the landscape,
when Autumns glow sets in,
as nature shows her halo,
and morning dews begin.
This season full of color,
with sunset colored hues,
while trees prepare for slumber,
such splendor it imbues.
