Autumn's Whisper

I'm not really one for writing poetry... in fact, I think I out right stink at it. Dustin recently did a Literature unit on poetry and his teacher assigned an extra credit assignment to write a poem. He did one about his cat, but I was inspired by the gorgeous fall colors and wrote one too. I think I copied him a little with the repetition of "falling". I liked how he had incorporated it into his poem. I'm not sure it's any good but here it is...
I know, don't quit my day job right? LOL

Autumn's Whisper

Falling Falling Gold and Red

Autumn’s whisper blows through my mind

Pies, cookies, and breads warm my soul

Thankful greetings to friends and kin

For Winter slumber comes again

Grey and white cover me long

Fun times once more when green shows

Flowers come and butterflies tickle

New babies emerge from the den

And grow with summer as spring ends

Crisp veggies sowed now yield their fruits

Hot sweltering heat makes my thoughts lie

In hopes of cool once more

Falling falling gold and red

Autumn’s whisper blows again.
