Autumn Skies
Kit Steil
Peachy skies
And citrus lights
Paint the town pastel orange,
The autumn leaves remain unchanged
Welcoming the sweet-colored sunlight.
The leaves of the evergreens
Reflect back their friends' favorite hues,
Dressing up like them
To show them all their beauty.
Citrus skies begin to fade
As the sun drinks the sky one last time,
And draws its rays from the clouds,
Leaving only traces
As it crawls back down the mountain.
The evergreens return to green
As their friends remain the same;
Perhaps tomorrow they will play
Their dress-up game again.
And citrus lights
Paint the town pastel orange,
The autumn leaves remain unchanged
Welcoming the sweet-colored sunlight.
The leaves of the evergreens
Reflect back their friends' favorite hues,
Dressing up like them
To show them all their beauty.
Citrus skies begin to fade
As the sun drinks the sky one last time,
And draws its rays from the clouds,
Leaving only traces
As it crawls back down the mountain.
The evergreens return to green
As their friends remain the same;
Perhaps tomorrow they will play
Their dress-up game again.
