Beauty of Fall


Hued
Leaves fall,
Painting soft
Maple daydream,
Enchanting image
Of chromatic carpet...

Russet, yellow, orange
Spangles twirling down
From golden trees,
Breeze unfolds
Wonder
Dance.

Jo, your poem is so pretty, I lived in Vermont for years and fall became my favorite season. My favorite lovely line in your poem is, " Enchanting image Of chromatic carpet" Perfect.
