Valsa George Poet Rhyme

Autumn- Constanza

Summer is withering away
The earth no more is seen in green
Colourful blooms, no longer seen

The sky is dappled with clouds gray
The sun has lost its golden sheen
Dales deep, veiled in foggy screen

Autumn leaves litter the byway
When wintry gales shake the pine trees,
Acorns drop, presenting a maze.

Trees in multi shades line the way
Indeed a delight for the eyes
All through, one feels November's breeze

Sad, these golden moments won't stay
Though wind sings as it passes by,
From our hearts, rise a restless sigh!

Summer is withering away
The sky is dappled with clouds gray
Autumn leaves litter the byway
Trees in multi shades line the way
Sad these golden moments won't stay
