An Autumn Sun
November's cold wind fuels December's freeze,
although the sun is still beaming golden rays.
On a canvas of leaves, Jack Frost tints the trees,
as longer nights encroach upon shorter days.
November dips its brush in a golden sun,
gilding green canopies before it is done.
And Autumn leaves are a visual delight;
a splash of color, preceding Winter's white.
Chilly mornings whisper secrets to the grass,
while frost glitters like shards of glittering glass.
Fleeting hours of warming sunlight swiftly pass,
beneath a sky of azure and fading brass.
Nature's winds laden with snow and freezing rain,
shun the sun, welcoming Winter's bitter reign.
Yet, topaz beams struggle through the cloudy grey,
to light the world before Day is chased away.
