Autumn Sonnet

I see the maple tree leaves turning red

Leafy veins appearing so white at first

The summery green story now been read

The cooler weather causes sugar thirst

–

Maple trees are not the only changing

Even wavering aspens turn golden

Mother Nature landscape rearranging

Those summer hues are turning, emboldened

–

Apple cider scents in the autumn air

Drifting along the bonfire sand beaches

Carved pumpkins sitting on the perron stairs

School has started with classes and teachers

–

Autumn delights even in the kitchen

Eat pumpkin or apple, just a smidgen.
