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.
