Hello, my Friend! Hello today!

I hope you are in a good way!

No matter rain, no matter shine,

I always hope your day is fine!

I came outside my home today,

And what I saw, I will just say!

The leaves were all over the ground,

Just everywhere I looked around!

Of course, some shamrocks I did see,

Though hidden in the leaves they be!

     

Spring’s and summer’s bright colors fade…

The trees no longer give much shade!

     

     

What was once green, did not look green,

What I saw was a golden scene!

The greens have mostly turned to gold,

It’s been this way since days of old!

  Amidst the gold, was orange…red,

Yellow, too…that’s what I said!

     

Reds, oranges, yellows, and greens,

With grand blue skies…fine rainbow scenes!

     

               

    All trees orange, red, and yellow,

Are givin’ to us their hello,

And we are havin’ a grand show,

Of all colors of the rainbow!

     

  

     

Sometimes the sun shines on the leaves,

They look like gold with such great ease…

     

Just like the birds when flyin’ high,

The sun shines on them in the sky!

The sun shines on them…on their wings…

Like it would shine on golden rings!

      

Some birds fly south, the geese do squonk…

They fly & make their squawky-honk!

     

Some of them have flights that are long…

Does not, though, keep them from their “song.”

     

     

     

Soon trees be bare…leaves have fallen…

Air’s so cool ’cause winter’s callin’!

     

        

         

The squirrels have found lots to store,

While chipmunks have done that and more…

Sometimes you see them as they munch,

On nuts and stuff, they crunch, crunch, crunch!

The squirrels’ nests that hid so high,

Among trees’ branches near the sky,

And where once safely they did hide,

Now there they were, in sight outside!

     

     

But do not even try to peek,

Or even, to find squirrels, seek…

‘Cause “Chuck, chuck, chuck!” is what you’ll hear,

If , by their nests, you do go near!

     

The deer and bunnies’ fur gets thick,

So winter cold won’t make them sick!

     

Some apples are left on their trees,

As well, some berries stay with leaves.

     

The Sun is in a different place

For all who live on our Earth’s face!

Sun’s warmth will now not be the same,

For all of us for whom Fall came!

The frost will come, now, as these days,

Have dew drops too cold for Sun’s rays.

Some icy-ness on grass and leaves,

Will glitter in the Sun with ease!

     

     

     

But Nature’s tellin’ all who “hear,”

That wintertime is very near!

And Nature’s tellin’ us, of course,

About how she’s God’s mighty Force!

I, Finney, will be ready, though,

I do have my red scarf, you know!

So, I will be so snug and warm,

When we might have a winter storm!

I am so glad we talked today!

God bless you is what I do say!
