Fall Foliage #22

Start the color parade
eye-catching, vivid

glittery, mesmeric
in a north, leaf-chasing quest

ubiquitously brilliant
amid steadfast evergreens

allées of gilded trees
each outsparkled by the next

dazzling, sunlit stretches
of saturated beauty

then some stripped, bare branches
within once blazing patches

dampened soon at northernmost end
to extinguished, gray-green finish.
