COLORS OF AUTUMN - by Jim Foulk

 



COLORS  OF  AUTUMN 

by  Jim Foulk




I can smell fall

in the air

my eyes behold

golden leaves as

they descend slowly

onto the ground

the dying of summer

brings on fall

oh, the wonder of it all.





The Autumn colors

such a splendid marvel

painted all around me

covers me with

feelings of compassion

knowing this beauty

that surrounds me,

is only for a short time

until all the land,

will be barren

on this spot,

where I stand.
