Leaves........Dancing on the swirling winds of autumn
Red and..........Brown and sere they flutter to the earth
Golden hued..........Harbingers of the coming snows
Rustling above..........They dance and flit round my head
A crown of glory..............Filling hearts with laughter
Draping the mighty ash........Landing soft on grass
Setting the forest afire.................To spark my joy
Nature paints the woods with wonder.......Seasons turn
My soul is filled for the dark to come..............Winter
With the promise of a new beginning.................Spring
