As days grow cooler,
deciduous trees
change their colours
then lose their leaves.
Before they fall,
green chlorophyll’s
no longer made
in autumn’s chill.
So we can see
those leaves unclad,
revealing what
they’ve always had.
Rich-red raincoats
misty-glossed,
veins criss-crossed,
flapping honey
leather soles,
and dying, dowdy
paper scrolls.
This autumn rainbow’s
red – gold – brown.
Confetti falling
all around.

Impressive array of images, Celia, with confetti particularly apt in completing the overall picture.
