Golden Dreams

The aspens shiver in the breeze.
First of all the other trees,
To show their colors in the fall.
Like ladies going to a ball,
They don their gowns of glowing gold.
Make ready for the days of cold.
With winter's onset, one by one,
The leaves, with days of glory done,
Release their hold and drift away.
All borne upon the wind, they stray
Far from the tree that gave them birth,
Before they come back down to earth.
Beneath the snow, piled white and deep
And dreaming golden dreams, they sleep!




Betty Lou Hebert

How gently you write with so much elegance and grace...simply beautiful, Betty...

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

kitkat:  Thanks for responding and I agree, that autumn is a wonderful time of year. I'm sure it's even more so in Nova Scotia than here in the west.
