Fall -in love with NC

Change of Seasons



Much lament the Northerners
who move to warmer climes
"I'll miss the change of seasons,
when there's only palms and pines"


 But travel south I implore,
From Maine to Holly Springs
to marvel at the palette
that a southern autumn brings



 
Vermillion of the sourwood
The scarlet of Black Gum 





 The russet of the Oak and
Poplar yellow as the sun                         



Lakes reflect the golden bronze
of Hickorys near by



The ever changing Cherry
against a temperate azure sky


From the ocean to the Blue Ridge
Carolina is ablaze
So, come enjoy the beauty
of our changing season days
