Autumn sets

The cool autumn winds with floating mellow leaves,

The falling fronds cheering through their way, a warm welcome they give.

A season which paints the sunlight with all the hues in glow,

Warm summer gives a bow, letting the autumn flow.

Autumn, all adorned in mystic, with a galore of richest to hold,

Nature waiting patiently for the magic of green turning to gold.

The crackling of fallen leaves under the feet, with a jingle of their own,

A perfect season, a woodland spot for happy souls to roam.

The gleeful leaves shining and reflecting the sun's dazzle,

The best time to shed all the blues and emerge from the deep frazzle.

A golden hope with a new arrival that soothes the distressed soul,

It is mother earth's way of spreading life, by letting go of the old.

A season which shows the beauty of fall with a natural swing,

Welcome the orange shades and yellow days, with melodious songs to sing.

Autumn arrives with a golden glow, and dancing leaves to tease,

Giving summer a gentle push with a cool and calm breeze.

Accept gracefully the way of life, like the way the seasons change,

Nature balances the season's moods, controlling its range.

The winds in their lighter mode, giving the fallen leaves a stroll,

Autumn in its hueful best, brightening up the October soul.

It's mesmerizing to see the dancing leaves as they gracefully take a fall,

The trees too take a bow, swaying at autumn's call.

An applause for the cold winters, waiting with the white chills,

The celestial visuals of the golden sunrays spreading over the hills.
