Autumn Leaves

Poetic descriptions of leaves and autumn.

Rays of sunlight break through thick trees as cold air blows through a path of fallen flames, And the leaves are never lame.

Red, orange, and yellow leaves all mixed up in a path that makes them look like fire! And the season of autumn we shall admire!

Leaves that have fallen float like a feather, And leaves that feel like leather!

Sometimes an autumn leaf might be mistaken for a rose, A flower that soothes your nose!

Fiery pride glows in a leaf, Like a red coral in a reef!

His neighbor the fern is green, Not the color that I think is royal like a queen!

Green’s not a good color that I’d color a queen’s mantle! And you can hear the leaves mumble.

And red’s a color that I would also color the eye of a fantasy wolf, Red leaves like the petals of a rose slip off their branches and enter a mighty gulf.

A leaf’s life is so short, For it’s only almost a year old, and if you arrange them by age, that’s something you can’t sort!

Don’t be tardy, little leaf, for you’d need to suffer winter’s cold! You drop in winter, and you can’t be old!

Should I help you drop, Or just leave you at the tree top?

You’re already tardy, leaf! And you’re gonna suffer winter’s cold, unlike a coral reef!

Drop please, leaf, please drop, Or clouds might help winter with raindrops!
