Autumn's Allure

Summer waves goodbye, as it tip toes forward.
Autumn shadows the land, without saying a word.

The hues of fall gradually makes its appearance.
The traces of summer breeze by, saluting in reverence.

Autumn light rain covers over the splayed ground.
A gentle wind cradles the leaves falling all around.

Summer passes on by, taking the toil and the heat.
Autumn breathes in coolness, as the summer retreats.

Trees turn over a new leaf, as autumn commands.
The green plush ground fades and changes hands.

Grayish clouds appear and the sun is obscured.
Autumn abounds with mystery and full of allure.

I enjoyed your change of season in rhyming, and personification. An awesome, and unique way to change the season. Sincerely, Moses

Nice use of rhyme and imagery to convey your thoughts in a creative way. The personification works well too. I really enjoyed this one. Thank you for sharing it. Karen
