Autumn Winds

Autumn Winds Autumn winds blow restless and un-tethered subject to its own patterned weather. It neither rests nor sleeps racing forward without retreat. It rises in the west as well as east slip sliding north in wild feats. Autumn once held calms moving summer’s pawns. In creeps in upon subtle breeze refreshed anew surfing on the seas. It breathes deep, alive and well clinging to the storming swells. Autumn paints the earth surging in momentary rebirth. It sustains the last harvested fields replenishing the storage yields. It ends the season of full glowing moons as life dances to delicate swoons. Autumn closes summer’s door leaving winter to wield its score. It chills and cools an oncoming frost where cold and ice creates the final loss. It sheds its cover and its dress bowing to winter’s snowy best.
