The end is near
Leaves falling with elegance
Gracefully decorating the forest floor
Red, gold, brown
A quilt made by woodland spirits
Covering the ground as a last defense
Against the winter cold
The sun highlighting blazing forest colors
Making it seem as if the trees are burning
The clean crisp scent of frost
Permeates the air
As the creatures of the forest
Is making the last preparations
For the oncoming winter
