The autumn opera
The autumn came
Staging the opera in forest
The change of decorations kindle up the heart
Golden yellows, blushing reds,burgundy wines
Bedecked curtains opened for new performance
In like manner actors groomed for the histrionic show
Roles given,learned,memorized to perfection
The orchestra anticipating signal from Maestro Autumn
It arrived with chinook's freezing's exhalation
Overture's shy notes flip-flopping of runaway brides
At last settling into steady spousal relations
Louder,bolder music fills the forest's lungs
The opera began triumphal tour de force
Bird's tenors arias ,bear's solo baritones
Applauded by appreciative patrons
The show must go on till superseding winter
Comes with a new decorum,new roles to portray
