ОСЕННИЕ ОТРЫВКИ

Серое небо при тихой погоде,
Ягод краснеющих горький запах.
Осень неслышно всегда приходит —
Рыжая кошка на мягких лапах.

Смотрит прищуренным желтым глазом,
Рыжий хвост задерет повыше,
И пожелтели все листья разом,
И зашуршали, как в страхе мыши.

Кошка играет с ними, гоняет,
Нюхает ветер, пушистит шкуру,
Осень цвета меняет — линяет
Кошка, из рыжей становится бурой.

Только хвостом махнет, убегая,
Кошка-осень. Но с первым снегом,
Крадучись, кошка придет другая —
Голубоглазая с белым мехом.
