Ablaze

Crepe Myrtle ablaze, set afire By sunbeams peeking through A heavy damp fog that settles And kisses the fresh dew Golden leaves contrast the Myrtles Those leaves on the pecan And amber needles hang weighted Lovely in the new dawn

I see my Crepes out the front window and love the colors -- what a great time of year. Your title is so appropriate -- the leaves are ablaze. thank-you for the poem -- morning dew, colors, leaves -- I am ready to hit the day running. All the best.
