Autumn

Autumn Autumn greets summer on a gusty breeze Waves farewell as she spins down the sidewalks Laughs with delight as northern lights she sees Finds one final bouquet of the sweet phlox Waves farewell as she spins down the sidewalks In the early dusk she tastes the first frost Finds one final bouquet of the sweet phlox Weaves her first spell before the hoarfrost In the early dusk she tastes the first frost Autumn yawns as early darkness stunts her days Weaves her magic spell before the hoarfrost Beneath the amber moon’s song of her praise. Autumn yawns as early darkness stunts her days She smiles through misty hues of incensed trees Beneath the amber moon’s songs of her praise Wrapped in soft cloak of her finest red leaves She smiles through misty hues of incensed trees Laughs with delight as northern lights she sees Wrapped in a soft cloak of her finest red leaves Autumn greets summer on a gusty breeze 9-8-22 Contest: Autumn Sponsor: Caren Krutsinger
