Flaming Autumn

A thrill of autumn debutant debrief 
with row on row of bushes blooming red    
releasing winds of change upon the reef    
autumn bids her hues of mournful reds ;
the bristle pinecone clings to scented pine
and dances in the breeze then all  around 
as trinkets fall abreast time after time  
the nutmeg earth rejoices without sound 
in gentle motion earth's rotary stirs  
fulfills the promise of a season's page  
October and November breezy whirrs   
find aim and turn their colors brown to sage 
as cooler nights attend our entourage,  
we welcome her by harvest's old adage.
