Days of November: Colour

11/6/2016

Colour is the word of the day.

Colour Seen

With wondering eyes
A boy, he sees
international traveller
The colour of the trees.

Before his eyes
the change they make.
He's delighted and curious.

Its so fun to see.

And before I know it
with wondering eyes
a woman, she sees.
homegrown citizen
the colour of the trees.

The colours delight
And memories they make
even if they cause one
to pick up a rake.

Delightful images! I wish we had trees that changed color. We seem to have green summer leaves and then over night, the leaves drop and turn brown. The picture is lovely and your words do such a good job of creating a mental picture.

This poem was just fun to write... it was a good break for me in the midst of busyness. :) It's too bad you don't have the fall colours to delight the eye.
