Welcome Fall Beats


Colourful carmine leaves tardily float down, 
One by one like a russet rain, 
Tall tanned trees wearing a gossamer gown, 
Sighing let go of the ruby train,
Leaves swirl and twirl like a crimson chain;

Orange pumpkins are bright and ready,
Children come with their tricks or treats,
As the cerise leaves fall down steady,
Children await their Halloween sweets,
Fall is here with its welcome beats.
