Autumn Leaves

The autumn leaves
of dusk inspired hues
bid a graceful farewell
as winter ensues
Colours fall in blankets
of sombre confetti
to announce
nature’s funeral bed ready

With the trill
of the coming winter winds
A chill impregnates
and life rescinds
And as the final
autumn leaves bow goodbye
The first frost appears
as a tear in the eye
