A Change In Autumn

As the world closes in on us our eyes see what our hearts permit them to see In autumn - in the waning of the year as the trees turn orange, red and golden before the land is covered in white we will see sound and light Surrounded by nature's beauty we become a part of the eco-system A great dawn awaits us in the end Voices of ancient children reverberate in the cool air Sometimes when it seems that we are lost the rhythm of the seasons reminds us of what we may become Perhaps this autumn light will bring this world to its' senses Strength, Tranquility and a heavy sense of peace Are being swept in by a cool Northeastern breeze

This is wonderful writing. I see you call it lyrical and it is,but to me,it's a fine example of free verse poetry done the way it should be done. Good line breaks, flow, etc. Luv, andrea
