The Colors Of Fall

As the season of death creeps in
Little does he know,
That with the change of life
The beauty that will show.
The changing of the leaves
With colors of brown, red and gold,
Will be the luster of beauty
That stands out so bold.

Although Spring has its colors
And growing life abounds,
The colors of Fall are resilient
As the leaves float around.
The changing of the leaves
With colors of brown, gold and red,
Will be welcoming in winter
When things will soon be dead.

Enjoy it while you can
Because it won't last long,
All things beautiful
Will soon be gone.
But then, when old man winter
Slips in with all his might,
Things will be a lustrous
Ground covering of white.

Ahhh Fall
The noblest
of seasons

Winter lies dormant
awaiting the warmth
of the spring sun
to start new life

Spring - Rebirth
and the fresh
Kaleidoscope of wildflowers
on the mountain side

Summer
Glorious summer
The forest alive
and trees in full canopy


But Fall
Oh my goodness Fall
We have so much to learn
from the leaf
that struggles not to hang on
but eases into
letting go.................

That reminds me - I still have the leaves I collected for you - I'll send them on down...

Autumn in New England (well, in my neck of the woods) is beginning in a beautiful crimson, followed by orange and yellow to gold........should peak in the Northern part of New Hampshire within the next week or so.........

Poem matches well to a true description of the upcoming seasons...........

You DO have a true gift with words Robert...smile2
