Fragrance of their colors – v2

pungent, sweet, decay

giving up their color,

an aerosol of autumn

deep, rich aroma

maples leaves fallen

almost like ripe tomatoes

their colors dripping, urgent

giving off fragrance

in the wet fall morning

offering up for our pleasure

in their appointed season;

a whisper of springtime

of our planting in the soil
