Autumn's Welcoming

October eyes welcoming
seasons charming exchange
Greens for the golden, 
of trees, as they rearrange
Crimson twirls 
from limb to ground
Circles completing
as nature astounds

October eyes gleaning
whirling color revolutions
observing the dance
with pleasing devotions
Crackling leaves
crunching under my feet
another Autumn
I’m blessed to meet
