THE DEEP BLUE SAYS IT'S AUTUMN - by Rick W. Cotton

 

THE DEEP BLUE SAYS IT'S AUTUMN by Rick W. Cotton The deep blue says it is autumn. The sky is never this color Except for days of cool, clear breeze And leaves falling one on another. The gold leaves say the year is ending In its wild-hued conflagration. The gentle season of harvest time And happy fall celebration. The orange says Halloween's nearing And Thanksgiving's not far behind. The heat of the summer is waning fast, And a peace fills my heart and mind. The colors of fall are all calling, And my heart hears their song so clear. Gray wintertime waits, but let's all celebrate The brilliance of this time of year!
