Autumn's Colors
The leaves change complexion
as they anticipate autumn’s wind,
colors telling everyone
that winter’s walking in.
The swaying trees
let the leaves
fall with vacillating ease
‘till they softly touch the ground.
and i love to hear that crisp crunching sound
as they’re being stepped upon.
Then i rake them up into nice neat mounds
for dad to take away...
but before he’d get there, i would stay
in tinted brittle leaves, i would lay.
Then encouraged by the sun
i’d have some fun
by messing up the lawn...
then it appeared to me
that the ingenious of she
was right where they belonged.

I am from Miami, Florida and have written poems throughout my life. Some more prolific than others. I know this site is for young poets and writers, but i am young at heart with a little more life experiences. Since we all have been locked up in our own induced prison for awhile, i thought it was about time, since i have so much of it now, to gather all my writings and share my life with you all. Topics that i cover will be, "Mother Nature" "life" "Friendships" "Love" and "Some stories and Thoughts." I have loved art all my life, especially photography and graphic art (my profession, love designing logos and studied at the art institute of Ft. Lauderdale) and ceramics. I wrestled at light weight in high school and won a national award for one of my ceramic vases. I have gone through many rough waters in my life, which one of us hasn't,? which you will read when i post them. I fantasy roll play, play card games especially Poker, and i like board games. You are welcome to follow me on Facebook if you are so inclined to snoop through my pictures and my life. https://www.facebook.com/mitchell.abrahams.77 or for my poetry page "Me Myself & i" fb.me/mrapook I also belong the the "AllPoetry.com" website. Hope you enjoy my poems
