Burnt orange, red, gold in mottled decay, burgundy and brown hued in every shape, fallen leaves laying . . . for the wind to sway, from the trees each leaf has made an escape, bare branches sigh for their lovely green cape. Fall has come and erased all summer hues, the birds- the birds are twittering the blues. Breezes are full of Fall's withering scent, and I find my poetic voice- my muse. The end of this season I will lament_ __________________ October 22, 2022 Poetry/Dizain/Fall's Decay Copyright Protected, ID 10-1496-249-22 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Theme - Nature - fallen leaves Written for the Standard contest, Dizain sponsor, Sotto Poet, Judged 11/05/2022 First Place

Pretty. I wish we could actually see the fall. I decorate with fake leaves and pumpkins and all, but it's really not the same! Love your autumn poems Constance <3
