(Sonnet written as an Acrostic)

Painting by Thomas Kinkade, "Autumn Lane"

September comes to end our Summer bliss Enveloping the greens with amber glow Preparing for the Autumn's vivid kiss- The orange, red, and burnished colors flow Embracing all the fields and mountainsides Meandering, for soon the leaves will fall Become a quilted blanket that resides Enabling it to grow and quickly sprawl Reacting to the sun's more distant rays. Foreshadowing the chill of Wintertime Autumn can start the morning with a glaze Leaving a coat of frost and colder clime. Let's cheer this season we have named as Fall- September now responds to its first call.
