Leaves Take Their Leave

The autumn trees 

explode 

with color -

orange

yellow

 red.  

The seasonal fallout 

flutters 

and 

floats 

d

o

w

n 

 to the ground.

I 

stomp

fling

and

crunch

my way

through

fall -

until 

all

the leaves 

take 

their leave 

and 

the branches 

are 

bare.
