In scarlet, rust, and gold,
Stunners come forth in woods and roads
Enduring stories of grace in death unfold:
Humility is a thing of beauty—behold!
Meek polyps in pink, white, and light orange
Sway to the noteless music of ocean water
Following Luna so bright and gay:
Coral spawning is underway.
Bonfire, fireplace,
And warm embrace:
Comfort is in the air.
Doses of love are meant to be shared.
Pumpkins take the spotlight on Halloween
And Thanksgiving.
Vibrant beets, beans, and peas—
Harvest brings peace.
Brave snow geese pack the flock from Arctic Tundra,
Off to the greener pastures of South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida.
Casanovas in disguise, monarch butterflies bid sweet goodbye to Canada,
Take a joy ride in the air, hello California!
Tales of change in acoustic
Strumming, playing free of remorse,
Seizing the day—
Nature is bold taking place.

Fall is my favorite season Brad! It may have some negative symbolism, but I’m in awe with its colors, the weather, Octoberfest—harvest, among many others. Happy Labor Day! Have a blessed Sunday!

Thank you Aina. I love fall, no negatives for me until we get to the cold of winter. 🙂 I was laboring all weekend and today, but grateful to have the work.

Oh, how I love Fall (Autumn) Aina… Your poem is a joy.
We have two large deciduous trees that drop their leaves. What a wonderful display of nature. The colours are especially wondrous.
Sending Love… 🙂
