Beautiful Fall

Behold the brightly decorated leaves
Emblazoned through the hills in splendid views,
And carpeting the earth in bronzing sheaves;
Unveiled in scarlet, amber, golden hues.
The dancing leaves waltz blithely on the trees.
In scattered troupes they flutter to and fro.
Fantastic actors swirl upon the breeze
Unfurled across the stage of Autumn's show.
Let us applaud the majesty of Fall.

For far too short a time does she display
All nature's varied shades in her ballet.
Let us applaud the majesty of Fall.
Let us applaud the majesty of Fall.
