Autumn, in full flow, flourishes,
flaunting her beauty in fiery hues -
flames of yellow, orange, red, glow;
her dress and tresses light the scene,
reflect the soft sun that bows to her command
holds Winter at bay with a grand gesture;
she whistles and in the breeze
leaves in free-fall flight drop to the ground,
turn brown to provide a crisp, crackling crunch
for footsteps on the forest paths
A lovely description. Autumn colours seem to have arrived suddenly during the last week here!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Alison. It does seems to burst on the scene!
