Autumn Song of Falling Leaves
The leaves in the air like a race,
They twirl with such rhythm and grace.
The autumn wind calls,
They answer in falls,
And drift off in nature’s embrace.
They flutter, they spin, and they leap,
The breeze whispers soft as they sweep.
A swirl in the sky,
Then softly they lie,
In golden-red layers they sleep.
The trees wave goodbye to their leaves,
As cool winds tug lightly at sleeves.
The season moves on,
Soon winter is drawn,
But autumn, for now, still weaves.
Meaning

Autumn Song of Golden Sunsets
The sky glows gold, then fades away,
A soft, warm light at end of day.
The sun sinks low, the air is cool,
And shadows stretch on every pool.
The trees catch fire with fading light,
Their leaves aglow, a burning sight.
Each sunset whispers soft and slow,
As autumn’s twilight starts to grow.
The night arrives, the stars appear,
The golden hues now disappear.
But still, the glow remains inside,
In autumn’s gentle, quiet tide.

Autumn Song of Quiet Woods
The woods are still, the air so light,
Soft rustling leaves, the fading light.
A whisper moves from tree to tree,
In peaceful quiet, wild and free.
The ground is gold with leaves that fell,
A gentle breeze, a ringing bell.
The woods breathe slow, the world is calm,
An autumn hymn, a soothing psalm.

Autumn Song of Windy Hills
The hills are wide, the wind blows strong,
It hums its tune, it sings its song.
The grasses bend, the leaves take flight,
The autumn air is full of light.
The wind sweeps past, it lifts the trees,
And dances with the falling leaves.
It whispers through each rolling hill,
A lively song, yet soft and still.
The sky is clear, the wind runs free,
It rushes fast from hill to sea.
The hills bow down beneath its call,
As autumn breathes its song for all.
