Splendour of the Fall

Leaves commence the dance of splendour In illustrious September In colours of red, brown and gold The fall is glory to behold. What joy it is to stand and stare As autumnal trees shed their ware When the trees are stripped of their braid October sees leaf carpets laid. When fall has had its final fling Then begins seasonal upswing Earth starts annual cooling down Preparing for winter touchdown. Beauty of fall can’t be denied By those who are blessed with fine eyes Embrace glory of planet earth For every season brings its mirth.

I love September. My birthday month though the date is a secret. It reminds me of wine. Splendid imagery in your poem.

Victor, it’s also my birthday in September and it’s my excuse for a glass or two of wine. Perhaps we celebrate on the same day. Thank you! ~ Belle (Happy Birthday to you - whenever it is.)
