A Wistful Breeze Premiere Contest Winner

A wistful breeze blows through the trees as summer nears its end September beckons to the fall Its old and brooding friend The blue of sky, the butterfly, birds that sing on high, will flutter with my doleful sighs as summer bids goodbye The somber sound of autumn bells with falling leaves they ring until they cast a gloomy spell with the cheerless winds they bring ---- 8-16- 2015
