The Beauty Of October

Beauty is seen in these Shawnee hills
As October brings us changing leaves
God shows a spectrum of the colors
He has made for our eyes to please

Bright Reds, Gold, and Orange leaves
Are seen throughout all the tall trees
Some leaves are varied in their shape
Beautiful as they wave in the breeze

Sadly each leave will drop one by one
Floating in a spiraling spin to the ground
To be separated from that tree forever
Their dropping will hardly create a sound

Squirrels will play in those fallen leaves
Looking for nuts that fell from the tree
Holding the nut between his front paws
He can crack the nut with incredible ease
