Amid all lush foliage,

Bestowing glory and grace
Entwined with the color red.

On a foliage tour with friends

The frost weighs heavy
Separating weakened limbs
From the sleeping trees
Covering the last foliage
Foggy glass crowns the color

With Autumn colors,
Foliage withers off the trees,
As birds migrate south.

descending foliage creak
and shudder, respite and waits

a difficult audience it was
I saw in the attendance
fragments of husbands
foliage of broken wives
and little bits of pupils

blooms, falls last foliage appears
reminding me-hope.

of the late bloomers fruit and

A stay in Autumn
Shadow boxes with great leaves
Majestic beauties
They surround the foliage
With gorgeous tranquility

Sun in shade and rain
On the foliage of pain
Of pent up warm steam
A moment of dark mirror
To sit face to face with you

The air is clear & crisp its feel
While foliage full, the trees are still
A breath indrawn my senses tell!
I dread December as the devil dreads hell.

Dress in your purples, your pinks and your whites
To swirl a soiree of foliage brights.
June beams balmy moon gazing nights
And sun stacked sweetened strawberry bites.
