Color clings to the trees and won't let go, though Winter has sent an early flurry. And crimson canopies shake off the snow, reassuring Autumn not to worry. Jack Frost's fire excels in setting the trees ablaze in scarlet and vermillion flames. And though some snowflakes commandeered a breeze, Winter's not earned the victory, She claims. And as the snowflakes quickly melt away, Fall's breathtaking beauty's fully restored. And for all those hoping the snow would stay, Winter's fun, but Autumn can't be ignored. Winter winds bathe in showers of dead leaves and a flock of geese honks; as Autumn leaves.

Very nice Emile. I can relate to the snow coming early in this poem. However, we got plenty that stayed with the leaves, both on the ground. :)

Lovely piece! Alas, winter has claimed this terrain, snow appears to be here to stay, only the oaks left holding their leaves. xomo
