Autumn

Autumn means colour Walking in the lanes Leaves all aglow With a fiery flame Mother nature at her best Leaves fall on the ground Leaving a vest of protection For Insects around Autumn shows the bare limbs Of the trees with its nests Where many a birds life began Where now they take rest Autumn brings action The hustle of the squirrel at work As she hides her nuts Only to forget next year. The little mice and hedgehogs  Look for food to fill up their tums and  Make up their warm beds To snuggle up upon The sound of autumn Is so unique The crunch of leaves under your feet The noise of the animals busy in their task Before the quiet of winter begins at last  Autumn is a wonderful time To look back , since the last. Missing those not here  now Their time has past
