Gone the summer
Butterflies and golden days
Apples are the full bloom
Of roses and azaleas
Lending their crimson hues to
Autum pallets revealed in leaves
Crisp acorns and Indian corn
Adorn the way
Of thanksgiving and the first snow

Nice! I can really appreciate the weather changing now, thank you. I've decided to sign up for this site and when I do I will submit this poem that I wrote for you. . . As I walk through the garden I can feel the breeze as the Santa Anna wind stirs the Autum leaves, and it's a peaceful feeling to know that the wind continues to blow.
