AMONGST THE AUTUMN TREES

AMONGST THE AUTUMN TREES

Into the shadows, underneath the shaded trees,

Footsteps on a carpet of leaves falling like rain.

Glance do i at what’s above, flashes of sunlight,

Gleaming through living statues of brilliant color.

A gentle breeze whispers past through the branches,

Ornaments let go of the arms that hold them floating

quietly and gently to the ground.

Further into the Autumn day i venture,

All is calm with nature as it invites me to share the day.

Amongst the Autumn trees lies much more than one dares to dream,

A never ending cycle of life that can’t always be seen.

  1. I love the Autumn with its colours . Especially hiking to the mountains when you looking around see the hats of the trees and their yellow-red tops.

  2. I appreciated the imagery in this and that you captured well
    autumn and nature. I loved going in to find some internal rhyming going on….

    Into the shadows, underneath the shaded trees,

    Footsteps on a carpet of leaves falling like rain.

    Nice write.
