Autumn In Ohio Autumn In Ohio An indian summer bonfire chants --a scarlet flame, on an apple cider eve As the spice of warm cinnamon- dance on winds, waltzing with the leaves And rich tapestries drape a September pond,reflecting her golden hues As the equinox slips in---bidding summer adieu Country roads display a pallet of colors, radiant in gown And myriads of butterflies flutter and fall, carpeting the ground Morning fog billows in and out-- of parched bails of hay Ruffling cattails in the wind, as they tussle and sway Bristling tangled shocks of corn mother nature waves To the once fertile fields, now barren graves While pumpkins are ready for harvest, to be made into pies And the birds prepare to take flight, off to southern skies A magestic splendor of God's artwork---a time when the earth glows And the most beautiful scene that paints my mind-- Autumn in Ohio.
