The tree <br />gathered its leaves <br /> <br />around her <br /> <br />stuck a passing cloud <br />in her hair <br /> <br />wore a little sunlight <br />& a slight rain <br /> <br />changed clothes <br />every now & then <br /> <br />as the fancy <br />took her <br /> <br />now a brilliantly blue <br />sky made of summer <br /> <br />now a warm evening <br />with just the slightest breeze <br /> <br />then a striking sunset <br />before falling asleep <br /> <br />wearing only a night sky <br />with scattered diamante stars.<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fashion-statement-for-scarlet/
