Flutes of Autumn

On the little long dying cherry tree 

the flutes of autumn play on a beautiful 

august day that sees its ending a long way away. 

The russet vies with Lincoln green to be seen 

to play the more appealing tune.



Oh why when these flutes turn their colourful tunes it 

sounds a haunting beauty yet when we compete our 

autumn tunes better to block all ears unless we play 

the songs of loving tears.

Thanks Sara. I like autumn which so attractive in Europe and North American and I like the 'Americanism' 'Fall' for the season too. Best wishes, Peter.

Thanks Ram, but it doesn't really rhyme, but what the heck!
