Autumn Emblazon Pigments

Emblazon pigment leaves in autumn 
    Sun's lull shadow playing possum.

Autumn rich hues of amber, anticipating
  Slowly trembling, slowly falling,
    Descending, creak and shudder,
      Unhurried, yet empowering wonder
Soft murmuring waft then slow showers.
  Monarchs flutter tasting flowers
    Beautiful shade of autumn spice
      In the sunlight once or twice.
Nature's palette of bright
  Migrating birds in V flight
    Towards the flaxen horizon there
      In the crisp wind laid bare.

Hello birthday girl ~ Love this tribute to autumn. My favorite lines are probably "Beautiful shade of autumn spice / In the sunlight once or twice" ~ It is lovely to find this delightful poem in the 2020 PS Anthology.
