Autumn Goodbye

It's autumn fall floating fluttered leaves amidst transparent skeletons of trees a shivered chill on the windy fly a feathering along the field of grasses dying where tassled stalks stand and wave salutations hello autumn and to summer - sad goodbye; the woodland heroes lay in the nested gatherings up high hidden in the forked branches of the oaks birds are on the wing soaring in the sky and the earth below whispers howls, then cries with resistance holds autumn too, that slowly begins to unwind; clouds disappear into the paling blue and forests shed their once colorful capes undressing in midday to slip into the nude November's cold awakening exudes.
