- a Refraction Time -

Soon nature will change color
A refraction time
Autumn has the highest price
A goodbye to warm and bright days

The air is fresh and the forest is quiet 
The migratory birds leave us
and those who remain
have to prepare for a new cold season

Autumn shines in orange, red and gold
When the sun sweeps low over the landscape
it gives a warm and nice light

Time for reflection, leaned back in a soft chair
Take a look at the starry sky, it's beautiful
The only thing you need to think about,
is to be present at the moment
