As day breaks, her spirit breathes

Patiently awaiting, the falling leaves

Orange, yellow, and russet red

Each tree will shed its leafy head

Decorate the ground, in perfect hue

Colors, delightful, in a vision true

Landscapes change, an added breeze

Stripping the forest’s brilliant trees

Until at last, they stand naked, bare

The spirit of autumn, now lays there

In the dead of night,
When moonlight shines
My lantern captures,
That which is mine.

Awakening graveyard,
The spirits do beckon
Calling out to me,
At least, what I reckon;

Is their immortal way
Of conveying their wishes
And I am never,
At all, suspicious.

For this is the time
Of the year I bloom
Though others may see
A most certain gloom

Autumnal equinox
My treasure, my Fall
The time in my life,
When the spirits enthrall

Apples, sweetly plump

Give way to an autumn feast

With luscious cider

Petals fell like snowflakes

On this, the first of spring

Each time they would smooch

Weather did a strange thing

At times, it was like summer

Then, twas autumn’s leaves

Lastly, winter, with its cold

Left icicles on the eaves

No matter where they kissed

Things would only get worse

It’s when they finally realized

They were under a kissing curse

Others told them to knock it off

They couldn’t stand the change

But, apparently this whole thing

Had been carefully prearranged

 

Happy Spring/Autumn Everyone! Enjoy your day!  ❤

The colors of fall

Russet and orange adorn

Flecks of gold petals

Now gathered, in a bouquet

Keeping autumn’s presence near
