Autumma

The cool night air brushed through the trees

Their leaves starting to turn

Vibrant summer green peeked through the gold, orange, yellow, and red

Not yet reaching their full potential a yin yang of color

Preceding the fireworks of color before they shed their coat of leaves

Hiding their beauty from winter's icy hands

Already a few leaves drifted through the air

Scattered across the grass

Adding to the growing excitement of some as soon the rest would fall

Winter was coming
