Red leaves
filling in spaces
from the cabin’s view.
Red, yellow and brown dots
taking over green.

It’s just beginning, though.
Multi-colored death
falling slowly to the ground.
More weeks of heat,
more months of warm.

Then the chill.
Then the icy cold
during the winter
of my life.

What insight you show in the line: "Multi-colored death
falling slowly to the ground." Each word is so beautiful and exacting,I will remember them in everu Fall awaiting me. The whole work is a masterpiece, which needs to be exhibited for deep enjoyment and preservation. - Your willing student - Bill

Has a certain melancholy to it. I'm reminded of September Song from The Fantastiks.

A beautiful, but bittersweet look at nature's later seasons in comparison with our own life's late seasons......written as an artist would describe the scene - as you truly do so VERY well!

Janet,
This makes me yearn for the icy cold. The heat here is unbearable this year.
I'm looking so forward to winter.
Thank you for letting me cool beneath your words.

Lisa
