At the autumn ball
Dance the most beautiful gowns of all
As trees parade
Small ones hidden in the shade
All standing tall
In colours galore
To name a few
There is gold, red, yellow too
Alzarian crimson,
With lilac showing through
Permanent green light
It all looks so right
At the autumn ball
Ahead of fall

Autumn Gowns
Written in honour of the Blue Mountains, NSW, Australia which is awash with glorious colour just before the trees shed their leaves.

Thank you Keith. The Blue Mountains are beautiful in autumn with magnificent colours on display in nature :)
