November sets the green treetops ablaze,
igniting flames of scarlet and cerise.
And as the nights overshadow the days
Mother Nature unveils Her masterpiece.
Scarecrows are left to guard empty gardens
while Jack Frost's brush colors the changing leaves.
And two Thanksgiving turkeys get pardons
as Fall's brisk breezes strip the trees like thieves.
Autumn adopts an orange undertone
as the fields are gleaned and canopies thinned.
And skeletal trees stand stripped to the bone,
barren branches left, rattling in the wind.
December triggers the death throws of Fall,
whereas all the flowers shrivel and die.
And the geese fly south with a honking call,
announcing that Winter will soon drop by.
