Autumn Romance

Shades of yellow, orange and red
Fallen leaves much widespread
A sunset sky all shades of rose
Afternoon skies with arched rainbows
During this time my love I met
Much like Romeo my Juliette
So much beauty she did gleam
Was she real or just a dream?
Her skin just like the sunset sky
Her voice a soothing lullaby
Ringlets the color of the leaves
Moving gently with the Autumn breeze
A sense of warmth she radiated
Heat the colors of Autumn created
It was then she stole my heart
An Autumn romance from the start
