Fall Roulette

Wayward wind whistles while it weaves A magical maze of colours Through rustling red rampaging leaves, Gems not found in all jewellers, Down they dance on startled strollers; Falling freely in the fast breeze, Garnet gold do a pirouette, Bare branches stick out in tall trees, Creating silent silhouette, Telling it's time for Fall roulette. 10.14.2020
