Autumn Arrival

The stained glass fragile face of the blue sky Gently whispers the arrival of shorter days. As boring laziness of summer days kiss the earth goodbye Bright sun artistically paint the day with chill rays Beneath the merriment of yellow and red colors of sycamore leaves Perfumes of the stealing autumn arrest my keen nostrils As busy-laden squirrels hustle nuts with belief, Mine eyes are fed with everlasting thrills Soon, the sentry poplars shall undress to yield wind request And dance naked before the scented daylight Their ripped fruits dangling like damsel's breasts Shall kiss the bright-yellow lips of sunlight Then, autumn has cursed the earth with her chill wand And all shall dance her drumming band
