A few moments passed
and the leaves began to fall
patching the greenest of
grasses into quilts of red
Maple and yellow Gingko.
Seconds later, feather brained
birds become confounded while
contemplating warmer climates
as they taste the changing
season.
The last robin pauses
in time to balance upon a
favorite fence or too fast baring
limb in awe as the no
longer warm grasses vanish
beneath another lawn fading
to shades of crumbling
brown.

POIGNANT
Poignant and vivid. Reminds me of Keat's Ode.

Keats tended to milk an image right down to the aureoles, but garden-croft red breasted birds were not my inspiration, I just looked outside, probably he did too after seeing that woman - smile - Lady A
