Nature's Eye Candy


From my tower in the skies

look how the city lies

surrounded by a phalanx of green trees

Except today, with autumn's pallet,

iIt requires a further audit

of a view, bringing the strongest to their knees

Flaming gold and crimson hue

only a painter could construe ,

conceiving such a titillating tease

Yet observing passing days

it now assumed a different phase

As winter donned an overcoat with ease

The artist's canvass's now bare

brilliant colours very rare

and autumn's contribution to surcease

Today a different artist paints

with a set of new constraints

providing me a stunning new showpiece
