Notes About The Poem

Image result for autumn leaves

''Leaves Like Stained Glass Windows''


        Leaves have floated into piles,
  luminous colors for  m i l e s  and miles;
              burgundy, burnt orange and yellow,
        the trees slowly relinquishing  SURRENDERING

        A cool breeze makes them dance,
  some lay  q u i e t  some prance and leap;
                the Autumn sky ever changing,
         clouds moving and drifting wildly up ABOVE.

        A blustering cold wind takes them,
  piles  e m p t y  where once leaves had been;
                 then the sun shines on a tree,
          and behold leaves like stained glass WINDOWS.

Autumn leaves -- a beautiful, always changing show. Favorite line, "the trees slowly relinquishing SURRENDERING." :-)
