It's Autumn

Summer came quickly and ended abruptly Nothing stays the same Autumn is a time for change It’s the most beautiful time of the year Rustic orange, red, yellow, and green colors everywhere Today is the day God’s beauty is on display The silence is troubled by the swaying of the trees In the early morning the dew on the grass starts to freeze As time goes backwards and the late nights are cooler It’s the perfect cuddling weather A bright high blue sky A caterpillar flying as a butterfly Temperatures starting to go low That means soon here comes the snow The trees have revealed their colorful defeat I love to hear the leaves crunch under my feet Don’t you want some apple pie and coffee favored pumpkin spice? Right about now that sure sounds nice I'm overflowing with nervous excitement I know that winter has resentment

I like the "colorful defeat". That's a good way to describe the leaves dying. Well written.
