Autumn Colors
After the rains disappear and summer heat dissolves
Under sapphire sky soft breeze ripples and revolves
Trees lining the garden path prepare to face the fall
Umber leaves wilt slow and wait for the winter’s call
Morning dew clings to the ochre grass as silver crown
Northern winds will spray opaque mist in the air soon.
Canopy of auburn forest observes the birds fly away
On the fallen rustling foliage mystique spectrums play
Last few days before the winter brings the frost along
On blue hills clouds waltz and wind sings autumn song
Rhythm resonates in my merry mind in words of rhyme
Spreads on my poem the sunset colors of autumn time.
