As fall nears closer,
Summer ends,
Greens release themselves to reds and oranges,
Crisp leaves float in river bends,
Wind graces the autumn air,
Producing a chilling night,
Silence looms over the trees,
Southbound birds take flight,
Soothing songs blow in the leaves,
Making them dance in delight,
Branches shed healthy matter,
Green scenery becomes a scarce sight,
Magical golds scatter the ground,
As a serene feeling hugs the trees,
Red and brown join the gold,
Piles are full of leaves...
