Autumn On Fire

God’s inspirational napalm set ablaze upon the trees of autumn, Welcome to the ascension of the fall season, bursting forth onto The leaves once evergreen. Colors of crisp snapping, auburn reds, fires aglow oranges, and Subdued darken browns to contrast the mixtures blending, created By the masterful hands of a higher powers creativity. Tender timbers mutated into a glorious display of light and color, Splashing the palette array of natural beauty. Blessed in magnificence the lord hushes and stills, the mortal heart, As inspiration captures the poets ink pen to write, Upon the empty parchment page. Strolling lovers huddle together, beneath a wondrous tapestry, A canopy of leaf petals, that descend as it is caressed By a chilling fall breeze. Whispering softly in each others ears tender words Sweet nothings, youth in utter splendor wrapped Embraced in loves devotional shawl of emotions. Behold vows promises of perfection uniting These spirits of fall, united against the winter Winds forever more. Cold and slain lay the roses of summer, yet within The wild heart of innocence, the flame of desire Shall not flicker out, nay it lives strong in the young, A blossom of delicate distention is true loves flower. Oh in timeless remembrance as years will pass, And only one shadow remains between these two Souls united joined in life as one. Shall beyond another single silhouette awaits, Tracing these burnt ambers of autumn from long ago, In cascading showers of melted colors of memory. In angels tears a gentle rain does fall, yet a smile Crosses the face of this eternal love, a blessings Promise in one word spoken, always.
