“Autumn Leaves”

Written for the Carpe Diem Challenge #20:    write a Tan Renga.

Tan Renga is a two stanza poem with 5-7-5 and 7-7 syllables (5-7-5-7-7).  Unlike a Tanka written by one poet, Tan Renga is written by two.  Poet One writes the  5-7-5 and Poet Two completes 7-7.

autumn leaves
myriad shades red and gold
begin to fall as snow
plush coat of many colors
cushions prowl of stealthy cat
