Peaceful end of summer ~
Wrapped in the winds of fall.
Lovely vibrant colors
in hues of red and gold ~
Paint the landscape with the view,
We have come to know as fall.
The stream plays a soft lullaby ~
As it sweeps the old away.
Clearing a pathway for the blanket ~
Winter will soon send our way.
So breathtakingly beautiful ~
Teardrops fill my eyes.
As leaves of every hue blend ~
Forming a canopy of gold,
Above me in the skies.
Another year has reached it's end ~
And writes it's story for all to see.
It seems a lovely culmination,
As it sets the stage ~
For winter's fireside dreams.
