Autumns End

I was first lead to the bubble last year in June, by Anneli whose blog The Creativity Corner, was in The Age. Each week she would do a challenge for all artists and writers.
The challenge was: Autumns End
I wrote in this blog under the name Coco.

Trees shed their worn brown clothing
Raw beauty now abounds
Beneath their slender trunks
Bronze carpeting surrounds

Green worn all summer season
Changed to yellow hues
A final stage of tanning
Prepares the winter view

A fashion show for artists
Who see with speaking eyes
Spectacular transitions
Each seasonal surprise.
