Zyrool Gifford - Autumn Leaves By Zyrool

The warm sand under the feet, now a memory,
Ice Cream trucks are gone, and the barbecue grills are cold,
Summer reluctantly says, I really can't stay,
As cold winds signal, Autumn is on the way.

Autumn's leaves, a tapestry we see year after year.
Dancing gracefully through the crisp, cool air.
In shades of amber, orange, and gold,
Each leaf is a sad tale of a story untold.

Leaves of different shapes and sizes break and fall delicately without a sound,
Gently leaving a multicoloured sheet
that covers the ground,
Wandering through parks and streets,
A musical crunch beneath the feet.

This colourful season reminds us of its beauty,
a palette of warm, earthy colours, a dazzling sight,
It fills the soul with peace and a craving for a mug of hot chocolate on a chilly Autumn night,
Autumn leaves are a sign to embrace change,
And like the fallen leaves, we too can let go of nagging woes from our past,
So, let's welcome the season as it changes,
as its rustic beauty sadly won't last.\n\nZyrool Gifford
