Kim Merryman Poet Etheree

Nature's Waltz

Fall's
                                                      palette
                                                clothes summer
                                              leaves with golden
                                            hues.  Melodic breeze
                                               invites exquisitely
                                          frocked foliage to a waltz.
                                  Whirling and twirling, leaves dance in
                                      the air, gradually drifting down...
                            down... down... carpeting the earth with beauty.




         9/20/2011 for Brian Strand's "Fall, your choice" contest.  1st place!
          for PD's #1's contest
