FIRST PLACE

Summer flowers gracefully bow dying, Etched leaves are twirling, swirling in the wind; Patchwork carpets cradle the leaves crying, The wild gusts send them into a whirlwind. Earth's crisp morning hugs me like a lover, Musical notes whisper such a sweet song; Beautiful hues mingle as ground cover, Each bird taking part in this singalong. Rain drips as I walk crimson forests trails, Fall is nature's gentle weeping goodbye; And melancholy I hear the sad tales, Leaves rustle ... rain a drum beating reply. Like hidden treaures I gather leaf bouquets; Stained glass leaves will fall for just a few days.
