Autumn's Message

I'm listening to a sweet melody
Coming from the trees that sway
A soft wind is quickly stirring
And it has a message to convey

I'm watching the red birds fly
As I breathe a sigh of relief
My eyes are slowly mesmerized
As I spy a multicoloured leaf

I feel a sensational movement
Of the flowers against my skin
They're like a colorful sonnet
Making me triumph from within

I am instantly understanding
What the wind had tried to say
Relinquish all of your worries
And see the beauty of every day

Such a soft and dreamy write. I see the leaves falling in slow motion and feel the breeze upon my face. Beautiful justice to this gorgeous season. Well done. Love, Shar
