Autumn

Just a little something to cheer you all up at this gloomy time of year!

i am disease, i spread through the fields

like a cancer in the veins;

i search for something to demolish,

for someone else to take.

the birds have ceased to chirp,

the ducks have ceased to swim,

the sun has ceased to shine;

But the wind begins to blow.

people are scared to see me;

they fear and hide from my name,

they bury themselves in disguises,

oh no! it’s him again.

The leaves fall at my feet,

the flowers bow their heads in shame,

i make people cry and sweat in fear,

i am back. can’t you hear?

The birds have ceased to chirp,

the ducks have ceased to swim,

the sun has ceased to shine;

But the wind begins to blow.

You cannot defeat me,

you cannot hide,

i will always return to haunt you;

i am autumn."

Unusual take on that 'most beautiful' of seasons.

Not sure I've been cheered up, but it was an interesting read, and at least spring is beginning to be sprung.

Hi Beccy,

Thank you for your comment. I was edging along the sarcastic route when I wrote the description, I don't suppose that came out very well.

Please keep checking back if its your taste of writing.
