Autumn has tinged gold the sycamore leaves
And turned crimson the sumac's soul
Sweet gum's burgundy five-pointed star pleases
Red the shade of maple's tri-fold

Fall decorates the hardwood forest
A reprieve before stripped bare in the cold
When no longer songs from spring's chorist
And crickets' love a thing now untold

Wonderful imagery Mrs Sara. I just love trees! The sycamore is a favorite of mine. I was raised listening to crickets, what a beautiful song they sing, but only if they are outside. I don't allow any cricket singing in the house:)
