Leaves are most beautiful on the trees  
Green  

Autumn's fallen brilliance of dead reds  
jaundiced yellows  
rotting oranges..  
remind the primate eye  
of food,  
berries  
fruits  
that show upon the tree  
in its season of living green  

In the season of dying  
the forecast shadow of lack  
our need fools us with colours of joy  
of plenty  
It is a time of self-deceit  

Smiling I dream of spring

Not a fall fan eh? It's a good thing you didn't mention nuts, which aren't ready till fall I think. Even so, I can see what you have seen here, and agree to a point. Spring is better - I find more enjoyment in a warming air.
