Autumn Colors

Autumn is a tapestry, in shades of red and maize!
The distant hills, breathtaking, in a lovely purple haze!

Trees and grass are dressed in green, a vision to behold.
Fields and meadows, overflow, with Autumns harvest gold!

A potpourri of natures beauty, scenes to be adored,
Mother Nature gets the credit, but the artist is, Our Lord!
