Orange, Yellow, & Red

By Bud Lemire 

 

As the leaves fall upon its Earthly bed
They form the colors of Orange, yellow, and red
Multi-colored leaves upon the ground
A place where Autumn is found
I look for the changing colors everywhere
At certain times, it's just not there
In other places where I am lead
I see plenty of orange, yellow, and red

In some places it is in between
A little yellow mixed in with green
Some places turn red right away
So bright and beautiful on a sunny day

I believe it depends upon the tree
On which color their leaf will be
Some don't change colors at all
Their leaves don't even fall

Some places don't even see this season
Where they are located, is the reason
As the leaves fall upon its Earthly bed
They form the colors of Orange, Yellow, and Red

Those Autumn colors are so beautiful to see. I love it when
the season is at its peak and you can see so many colors
among the trees. But if you don't see them at just the right
time, the rain will come along with the wind and blow the
leaves right off of the tree..
