The Naked Trees Autumn(November Contest)
It's time to flow,
the time of fall.
a period to past prime,
when deciduous loses their
green pages.
the annual of receding,
a season to decline.
An hour of wave has arrived,
when greenery depreciates.
as yeender breath ice,
the night smoke dust.
the trees look worried,
for their naked moment is here.
A fig is looking nude,
it's figure seems budding.
the flower savored,
perhaps is refreshment.
the leaves speak dried,
from green to brown fly high.
The frugivores aves
sing joyfully,
but hides no more.
for the plight of tree has
gripped their beauty,
it swing away their pride shades.
the autumn is ross,
indeed n-a-t-u-r-a-l.

Nice nature poem
Love the worried trees!
Also I did not know you had seasons as we do in the Northeast, I thought Nigeria was more tropical.
How cold does it get get there?

I'd rather learn from one bird how to sing
than teach ten thousand stars how not to dance

Hi Simon
The only line that befuddles me is "the autumn is ross" What the heck is "ross". Otherwise a good description of autumn
