(Entry for the Autumn Leaves Poetry Contest sponsored by Jcb Brul, submitted October 11, 2024 - Second Place)
Upon the final strains of Summer's swansong, Autumn makes her appearance, singing a harmonious hymn of hues with scarlets, ambers, golds and russets, the trees resplendent in their festive finery. In the still pleasant air the foliage falls as feathers, slow dancing; an emerging carpet, chattering in the breeze, sending sweet sounds of a susurrus symphony. The music of autumn leaves is a serenade for the senses... a paean to Gaia: soft, soothing, serene.
