Breezy Autumn

Hot summer is quickly fading away
One can feel November’s chilly breeze
Verdant green, replaced by sparkling shades
Earth gets dressed in colorful splendor
 
One can feel November’s chilly breeze
When autumn days start to unfold
Earth gets dressed in colorful splendor
Changes occur giving the eyes great delight
 
When autumn days start to unfold
The birds around the lake are flying away
Changes occur giving the eyes great delight
The maple turns yellow, red and ochre
 
The birds around the lake are flying away
Leaves get dyed in multi shades
The maple turns yellow, red and ochre
Cool wind blows and air becomes chilly
 
Leaves get dyed in multi shades
One can feel November’s chilly breeze
Cool wind blows and air becomes chilly.
Hot summer is quickly fading away.
