Undressing Autumn

The wind gently touched the colored leaves
Shaking them ever so gently and watched
As they glided gently downward to the ground
Soft and colorful not yet crisp from the
ever changing season's cold
Soon the trees will be barren 
The green dress of summer changed
to autumn's splendid colorful suit
The wind smiled for it will have fun
undressing and blowing autumn's leaves.

PHyllis, thanks for seeing so many of my poems today. I sure wish you had lots of new ones for me to see. I need to spend the wee morning hours doing lesson plans. But wanted to tell you what a great friend you are. Luv, Andrea

very pretty personification, my friend. It's always a delight coming here and seeing you have read my poems and better when I see you have up a new post. Now you have to do Gails' contest on season's dance. I bet you can do a great one.
