There is something about autumn
That brings out such earthiness
Gold leaves adorn bushes and trees
Like an artist with a brilliant brush
Once the leaves dry on the trees
Then the wind begins to blow
It’s a special time of year for me
Because I love autumn so
What a dazzling way to end
The year as winter nears
The way leaves let loose
And drop like nature’s tears

thank you for entering. I like the comparison of falling leaves to nature's tears. Autumn seems to be a season of celebration , yet also this certain sadness that a barren and cold winter might be ahead, thanks again
