PRETTY AUTUMN COLORS
*
Autumn colors autumn breeze
Makes me feel fine
Changin of seasons gives me such joy
As my life change
Would seem
Trees bare their leavers
All summer long
Pretty and green see
The birds do enjoy the pickin of
Breeds all summer long
Read yin for fall
Autumn leaves all around
What great joy

Autumn Colors and Breeze’
Autumn beauty with colors deep
Pumpkins we find big enough for us to seat
We enjoy all even some we can eat
Wings we feel as we go outside to sweep
Up all the leaves those that have fallen keep
Cover you while out and for the ground before winter snow creeps
Then still some of autumn we keep for peeps
Making decorations and for eats as those pumpkins sweet for treats
Even the seeds toasted children love adds warmth inner heats
As I walked into a breeze
A gush of wind made me not feel at ease
I grabbed by wrap and walked against trees
It made me freeze not like a tease
Almost took me to my knees
As I felt I was going to sneeze
Leaves blowing bringing back memories
I began to wheeze not pleased
Until the light above calmed me down to see
Love Blown Away
We stood in the chilling November breeze,
a few brown leaves retained on poplar trees.
By a murky pond’s surface I held you too tight
as if this last clinging would make things all right.
Streaming clouds, if we looked, were propelled
across a looming dark sky above.
Things I imagined two nights before
made me less certain of your love.
A dry leaf collided with your lovely wan cheek,
frowning a bit you reflexively brushed too late.
It was reassurance that I would seek –
is the ending of love the beginning of hate?
You rightly averred we were going too fast,
and I sagely agreed, now crushed, love had passed.
A park not the place for a fiery display,
I saw in dark water your reflection walk away.

THE FALLING LEAVES OF AUTUMN
Autumn leaves
Such beautiful colors
As red and gold
Drift by the window
As I sit and watch
Fall unfold
The days grow longer
Nights much shorter it would seem
And my arms are empty
With out your love
I the winter songs whisper
Sweet nothings
In my ears
Those autumn leaves
That sets
My heart all a flow
I hear the birds
Singing winter songs
October winds
Change
The leaves
From their beautiful green hues
Vibrant they be
From green
To orange
Yellow to gold
Then brown
Into a beautiful shade of red
And all in between even sun spotted
Autumn leave
How I do wonder
Your beauty
Fallin gracefully
To the ground
From the trees you do fall
Lettin looses
Your hold on life
As if betrayal
Nourished
You were now
Purplish
To fall
Shaken loose
From that you came
The winds blow you far and near
Fall to the grounds below
As dis guarded
The beautiful you once had
Turned into something else of beautiful as well
Rich colors of you now fade
Oh autumn leave
Your tone
Do just amaze me
Brittle you become just
To be crushed under feet
Lifeless be
Shatter to the
Winds
And now lay still for the frost
Tramped and ignored
For the harsh winter cold on the horizon to be fall
And your beautiful leaves will be no more
Just a memory would seem
Gone and forgotten
Oh autumn
We do have a common bond we live just to die

SWEET AUTUMN BREEZE
Sweet breezes of Autumn
carry me away,
my heart soaring
with the brilliant leaves
singing their glorious notes
in rainbowed colors all,
in gold and red and orange,
dancing their spirited dance
just before floating
through the air,
as they do,
and waltzing to the ground.
And for just those moments
within a late October breeze,
I hear the songs the birds sing
from the branches of the tallest trees.
For I listen very carefully
to every note they sing
as they float so gracefully
in the autumn breeze,
lifting my heart
and my spirit,
before the chill
of Winter sets in.
