Day: October 24, 2021

The leaves shakin’ free
In the gathering breeze
  That indicates fall has arrived;
The colors transforming,
Like a block of old cheese
  Upon which the mold aged and thrived.

From limbs they’ve forsaken
They fall through the air
  To cover the roadway below;
Slowly revealing
The trees standing bare,
  Mother Nature performs a strip show.

An effort recurring
To nourish the earth
  With nutrients each has to grant.
From each to another
According to worth
  Bestowing the gift of the plant.
