Autumn's Last Breath

Excellence Award in the 'Read Write Repeat 2015' competition

The gentle wind of Autumn
Blew through the sky
Steadying red and orange leaves
Until they learnt how to fly

The leaves whirled through the sunset
Making pirouettes and tall leaps through the air
A rare artwork is painted
With beauty beyond compare

But soon thick, grey smoke has quickly filled the auburn sky
Winds whipping at the emerald green trees
Making them cry
This new foreign enemy carries their sharp howls through the breeze

Winter has come, with its' icy blades and whips
Striking those it touches, with a grim, miserable death
It wickedly cackles, licking frost off its' cerulean lips
And brutally laughs and watches as Autumn takes its' last breath
