When that Mood manifests,
    every thing attests
to shocking beauty of                        oh, i love "shocking beauty".  
    all that's in sight.

Dead leaves go painterly               maybe replace "dead" because it´s repeated in the next stanza.
 it´s probably a strange idea, but how about "dead leaves float painterly/ in radiant melodies" or some other musical verb/ adjective to connect the image of the leaves to rhapsodize?  somehow i´d prefer 1st person singular instead of plural.
    in drifts of color we
can't help but rhapsodize
    with all our might.

Is it this Mood that makes
    dead things a scene that wakes
feelings of majesty,                      "a sentiment" instead of "feelings" for rhythm?
    awe and delight?

Or does that fickle Mood                 "fickle" is a good word.. not so happy with "or", because it´s not either - or. maybe something like "that fickle mood /would sometimes form in solitude,/ from  happenstance, just as /the scene is right"
    form in our solitude
born out of happenstance
    when the scene's right?
sorry for making some intrusive suggestions, maybe part of it is useful.
