Notes About The Poem

Autumn Colors

Autumn arrives astride a chilly breeze
Urged to paint the leaves before Winter's freeze.
The forest faires are all set to go
Under Luna's metallic golden glow.
Magnificent gilded moonbeams unfold,
Natural beauty that's strikingly bold.

Caramel amber, copper, and yellow,  
Offset a reddish-orange tangelo.
Like a shimmering swarm of honey bees
Ochers harmonize in the tops of trees.
Rustling mosaics cerise and brindled brown,
Scatter, as brisk breezes blow them around.
