A September day;

leaves still green and sky still blue;

Summer holding on.

 

The Autumn is here

when Maple leaves spread wings and

become birds of fire.

 

Who washes her long

golden hair in the river?

The bright willow tree.

 

Autumn Willows; heads

on fire; trying to douse

them in the river.

 

Now it is Autumn

and all of the willow trees

splash gold in my eye.

 

The Sycamore tree

 

See the Sycamore tree;

its leaves like flickering flames

yet, miraculously,

Spring makes them flourish again.

Enjoyed. I remember my first child, when i was reading a little book, and showing the picture of autumn and saying that the leaves went 'down, down, down' to the ground. He butted in to say 'and in the spring, they go up, up, up, and link on to the trees'!
