The changing scene at summer's end
Reminds us autumn's time has neared.
The trees display an early blend
Of dazzling colors, proudly tiered.
The countryside arrays a spread
Of leaves in gold and shades of brown,
Unveiling scenes of crimson red
That drape the length of autumn's gown.
But at the time of her goodbyes,
The trees release their leafy blend,
A sign to all the season cries—
The final tears at autumn's end.
