In the Wind

As fall approaches
leaves turn bright orange and sun-glow red
a flash of lemon yellow and chocolate brown
their beauty can be seen
as you travel along country roads
as winter rears
they slowly fall from the tree
stripping it of it's beautiful leaves
the wind whips and they swirl around
almost floating

Excellent imagery, Karen. Elegant in simple words.
