Autumn Leaves Blowing

Fall comes quickly Sometimes it surprises me Colors of the leaves Painted neatly red and gold Carpets the ground completely The breeze is cool now Blowing seemingly constant It moves the leaves up To blow them everywhere out Finally rest on the ground Russell Sivey Entrant into Brian Strand's "FALL YOUR CHOICE" contest!

I loved the imagery in your winning poem Russell. Here in Hawaii we have colored blossoms beneath the trees and blowing in our autumn wind, not the same feeling, but close. Congrats.
