The forest has sacrificed its crown of
glory in its pact with nature to surrender
the ephemeral beauty that Autumn brings
in an all-too-brief flirtation with summer's
end brandishing foliage in divinely
inspired embellishments transforming
mundane greens to golds, burnt umber
crimsons and purples in an embroidery
of exquisite finesse no legendary gods
of Greek fable could have hoped to rival.
