This is a list poem from the Carousel poetry group. It is an abecedarian poem. I started each line with a capital letter but no ending punctuation. Happy Fall.

Falling Leaves
by Carol Farnsworth
Aspen quake.
Birch blending
Cypress canopy,
Dangling dogwood.
Elderberries eaten.
Feverfew fronds
Gilded gourds
Hemlock rosy tips
Multi colored kale
Yellow linden foliage
Maple orange leaves
Nesting yellow nettles
Bronze oaks
Quaking lemon poplars
Rosie Sumac
Smokey tamarack
uveria vella coco seeds
Virginia creeper fiery
Willow holds leaves
Xylosma bus holly
Yucca creamy turns rose
Zinnias slow to be dormant
completing fall’s wardrobe.
