Autumn Leaf

Oh autumn leaf
in your splendour grand.
Your life is short
but very precious.
You bring colour to my
life in your darkest hour.
With brilliant shades of
green, gold, red & brown.
In the height of your
glory I do awe.
Then down, down, down,
the end of your existence.

  1. Loved it! That really does explain the life of an Autumn leaf.

    My favorite lines:

    You bring colour to my
    life in your darkest hour.

    1. Thanks for stopping by to read. Not many of my poems do I call favourites. But this is one I really love. One of these days, I should submit it somewhere.
