A Touch of Frost

Delicately balanced 
on the end of a twig,
breathtaking beauty 
on each little sprig. 

Lavish hues, orange, 
gold, yellow and red; 
veils of leaves above 
the forest bed. 

Jack Frost and his paintbrush
paint colored leaves with flair. 
Everything he touches 
turns magic everywhere. 

A sea full of color,
an ocean of leaves; 
so exquisite the beauty 
it's hard to believe. 

The splendor of autumn 
is how it unfolds, 
bringing you back, 
once again to behold.
