Autumnal

 

"Every leaf speaks bliss to me, 
fluttering from the autumn tree."

                          Quote by _ Emily Bronte

Autumn brings enchanting dapples and hues,
with each tremble and each fluttering breeze;
I love a walk to look at all the views,
the bright red, yellow, gold, and orange trees  !

It makes me feel like God has been painting,
with strokes of color created for me;
all the trees with sweet vibrant paints staining,
I am in a lovely dream filigree !

The smell of decay a sweet divine scent,
it drifts and is quite intoxicating;
that smell of fermenting I will lament,
the odor of Autumn captivating !

Oh, it only stays for a few short weeks;
but, is magical with its sublime streaks !
