Sitting in my garden
On a warm day in fall
Trees turning golden brown
Watch bumblebee's slow crawl
Tomorrow rain will come
And temperatures will drop
Enjoy this warm respite
And brace for quick flip-flop
Chair sits by goldenrod
Plant trembles in soft breeze
Grasshopper shares a stare
Then flies away with ease
Green colors fading fast
And garden beds will sleep
But only above ground
Below life will still creep
Stop and take some pictures
Of life in slow withdraw
Before harsh cold creeps in
Soak in fall's last hurrah
Author's note: Written will sitting in my garden on November 10th when pictures of the garden were taken.
