“Divert your eyes from your mobile devices ... you may get a pleasant surprise” Quote by the Poet I love the transition from season to season White winter beauty when snowflakes are falling down British weather can change without rhyme or reason When April showers fall in the country or town Autumn's my favourite season, some call it fall As dying foliage drifts down from lofty trees I've loved walking through crunchy leaves since I was small I'll wrap up warmly to combat the bitter breeze Such vibrant colours of orange, yellow and red Farmers gather all their crops from out in the fields Golden pumpkins grown in the vegetable bed I adore nature's beauty that this season yields Our ever changing landscape I truly adore From January all the way to December I aim to take photos as I walk out my door Must grab my Pentax... sometimes I don't remember! I love the transition from season to season Autumn's my favourite season, some call it fall Such vibrant colours of orange, yellow and red Our ever changing landscape I truly adore My Created Form- Rhyme4 Mix Poetry Contest Sponsored by Constance La France 12 syllables per line 12/08/20

Great write, Jan. personally, I would like autumn a lot more if it was followed by any season other than winter. Mind you, at least I can put the lawn mower away... maybe we’ll leave autumn where it is. Nice work. Terry
