Autumn uses a painter's brush
To color rustic landscape scenes.
Leaves turn crimson, as if they blush
Golden harvests, the farmer gleans.
An artist who makes my eyes weep,
Autumn uses a painter's brush
to wither the leaves, trees can't keep.
They tumble in a windswept rush
There's the trilling of a wood thrush.
A melodious song it sings.
Autumn uses a painter's brush
on canvas, where one last leaf clings.
Upon the ground beneath the elms,
Fall's burnished beauty makes one gush.
Its palette of hues overwhelms.
Autumn uses a painter's brush.
