'TIS A CITRUS FALL!"
Walking my critters this evening....
I heard the trees bragging,
"No need for Florida to worry,
We'll provide all it's citrus bounty!"
"Tis a Citrus Fall this Autumn,
Lemon, Lime, orange, and red grape
Picturesque scene fit for an album.
Leaves--'tis a Citrus Fruit landscape!
Lemons and limes dropping steadily
Oranges, and grapes 'tis a falling frenzy.
The trees are no longer diseased.....
They changed over night with a freeze!
Brisk brittle winds are blowing.
I smell "white stuff" and it's cold is biting.
Crispy, crunchy, crusty, and cheery!
"Tis a Citrus Fall in Wyoming,
and it's gladsome, no longer dreary!!!

"O Autumn, laden with fruit, and stained
With the blood of the grape, pass not, but sit
Beneath my shady roof; there thou mayest rest
And tune thy jolly voice to my fresh pipe,
And all the daughters of the year shall dance!
Sing now the lusty song of fruits and flowers."
~William Blake!

Ok Connie, now you made me miss more about Wyoming. Most of the trees in my area are evergreen, there are a few deciduous ones but not like there were there. And the white stuff !!! Two inches here, they shut this place down !!! I miss the three foot drifts. But at least we don't drop below zero much here ... even with a wind chill. LOL
Great write dear,
Nazmythian ~ |
