Colors on Fire

Autumn

 

 

There's nothing as fine

as an autumn day,

with the smell in the air

of fresh mown hay.

Each tree is a wonder

of beauty, untold.

Each leaf brushed with color,

a sight to behold.

There's a nip in the air

-crisp, cool and clear-

to remind us that winter

soon will be here!

But now we have Autumn

the "Show-Off" of seasons!

My favorite by far,

and these are the reasons!

I had to share this.  If there are drawbacks of living in the sunshine state, this would be one - we get oranges in the fall instead of the colorful change of seasons.
