myself ~ in celebration 

flaunting autumn orange 
I am 
my mind moves 
with brilliance in the season of release 
I wear my gaudy colors 
to trumpet to the world that I have mastered time 
my apparel changed 
from the simple variants of a single dye 
to a handsome gown that parades 
nature’s perfect gems flashing red, yellow, orange 
let me wonder at my foliage 
let me shake it in your face 
and 
let me float free in the breeze 
and fly in the storm to scatter my richness on the earth 
I nourish the potential 
I feed the seed 
my fall is the brightest of all seasons
