Flavescent ... Rise

Today's word is "flavescent" ... flush-VES-uh nt ... turning yellow; yellowish. (Dictionary.com)

Rise
Fall is the season,
For trees green, flavescent,
Soon they'll be gone,
Floating, then silent.

They fill up our eyes,
And lighten our hearts,
And remind us all,
That of nature we're part.

As they dissasemble,
We realize that we,
Will someday fall down,
But then we'll be free.
