Nature's Change

Autumn shades of nature's love
That burst with brilliance of jewels on trees,
So warm and friendly to a lonely dove,
Heavy with dew in morning's breeze.
Brilliant gold is rising in perfect blue,
As magical white puffs float gently high.
Dreams are born and all is new,
Of memories treasured of days gone by.
Chilling winds will soon change all,
Gone will be colors that now are aglow.
In wait stark trees silently call,
To soon be dressed in winter's snow.
