Autumn

Windblown leaves in the heart of a forest 
 singing the glory of an Autumnal day 
 the crisp golden colors of her sweet array 
 make me want to bathe in her light 
 and dance in the meadows of her dream 

As I cling to the earthen browns of an eve 
 I watch the sun give in to her sleep 
 she softly descends from a fading hill 
 with a yawning caress and a bless ! 

Magic moments of grandeur and awe 
 like the chirp of a stranded pardalote
 a minty moment of life, oh mine eyes, 
 soaked to the cotton with shine 
 my lips give praise of her time 

Windblown leaves turning and turning 
 dressed in the colors of a fire burning 
 I dance in the fortress of her season 
 lost in the alchemy of her reason 
 Autumn, I love YOU the best.
