Carpeted With Colour

The canyons were carpeted with colour

On this afternoon of early fall.

Yellow and purple displayed themselves

Midst the golds , oranges and reds in thrall.



How Nature’s wild palette was evident

Profusely displaying each mad hue

Contrasting sharply with the green spruce-

An immense natural abstract on view.



The white capped mountains gleamed so pristinely

Holding themselves distantly aloft

Soaring overhead, quite synchronized

Two bald eagles appeared simply to waft.
