A late Summer morning
captivating sunrise
The suns glow radiates
clouds drift on inky skies 

Dew dazzles like diamonds 
on grass of emerald green
Berries hang like rubys 
birds feast like kings and queens

Mother Natures banquet 
found amongst shrubs and trees 
Bronze, copper and gold leaves 
shiver on the cool breeze 

Wild fruit for the taking 
a tempting, tasty treat
Lavish jewels and gems 
plump and tender to eat 

A fast food takeaway
wild and freely it grows 
A treasure chest of fare
buried in hedgerows

See the changing of seasons 
hear the clock of time ticking 
The riches that Autumn brings
ripe and ready for picking
