AUTUMN

 

S. Bhavani

 

When winter moves away, green turns yellow and then to brown.

The season is changed and autumn is given the crown.

Fields, farms and lands are all gone.

As this new season is born.

No shadows of bushy trees,

As the branches are leaves free.

The mild sun rays fall on your face.

Its nice to tread on the leaves and walk in that place.

As the leaves get crushed under my feet

I gaze at the outstretched lands that never meet.

No trace of sand, no trace of land.

I gaze at the yellow and brown stretch as I stand.

The curled grave branches droop low

And beneath the soil the sprouts wait to grow.
