Autumn Fire

Autumn's song kindles the flame To set the leaves ablaze Crimson glows and golden hues acclaim The fervor that burns with autumn days It meanders to other domains And lights the forest with beautiful refrains A rhapsody of colors moves on high As fire opal tints imbue the sky The scene satisfies the soul's desire Showing off the splendor of autumn's fire ~-~ 10/22/16
