Fall Sets To Turn

Fall Sets To Turn When timely Fall sets to turn leaves hit the ground to burn Epic radiant colors cascade down forested floors see leafy gown Winter's visitor did arrive farmers feel jubiantly alive Harvest in , time to rejoice winter's precurser has voice Sounds of birds taking flight heading South day and night Leaves carpet forest floors Nature soon opens another door Moonlight nights see it all glowing as owls hoot the Fall Native Americans wasted no time prepping for another bad clime Furry critters store more food rushing all in the frantic mood Living in a deep winters wrath they pursue a surviving path Fall retreats into winter sea naked visits each pretty tree Leaves wrapping their roots Nights ring out owl's hoots Silence cries the coming day when winter will cast its sway Snow may cover all in white Fall has raced out of sight Robert J. Lindley, 10-19-2014 note: My favorite time of the year Fall and it is an honor to present now my 400th poem here as a tribute for its seasonal glory. I am no big fan of winter at all.
