Autumn

Autumn Some say autumn is sad It has it’s moments Rain , mist, dying nature... Stillness in the air, Cold, crispy days Bonfires, burning leaves... I say autumn is joyful, Happy, outburst of colours Laughter in the parks, Children chasing each other falling into the leaves, Hunting for acorns Little treasures hidden Under the fallen canopy. Chestnuts, pumpkins, Pies and hot cocoa... Gathering, harvesting, Leaf pile building. Bullions of gold corn, Smiling red apples, Nutty nuts Delicious hedge fruit Bounty of nature Rainbow of colours Symphony of shades and hues Tints of autumn Spell of the Grand Wizard Frost. Turned leaves, like a giddy spark of Yellows, oranges, crimson and browns Glistening glitter Dance in the wind. Bright hues of last hurrah of autumn Before the white, gloomy Silence of winter. Magic of autumn, Golden Age of the year With the last leaf that falls On the muddy ground One knows that time has come For another magical time ... Golden October, Frosty November Magical December And with this the spell starts all over again.... 13/10/2013 *********
