Autumn Walk

As I walk through the woods
On this cool autumn day
A bright carpet of leaves
Greet my way
Painted by nature
In coloures so gay
They flutter and glow
In the breeze today
As it brushes my soul
On it's gentle way
The fish in the pond
Jump and play
As ripples glow brightly
In synchronised desplay
And ducks sing their songs
Of contintment today
