Notes About The Poem

Autumn Breeze

Autumn of our life’s sunset years Time to replay moments gone by Each throb of joy and our dark fears Looking back, do we smile or sigh Our weary bones signal it’s time Autumn of our life’s sunset years Yet heart tremors sound a bliss chime We may age but child within cheers Melding head with heart, we change gears Erst rough edges gone, soul has thawed Autumn of our life’s sunset years We surrender each breath to God All we do is follow love’s scent Bliss heightens as God’s presence nears Assured now is our soul’s ascent Autumn of our life’s sunset years 13-August-2022 Hint of Autumn Poetry Contest Sponsor: Regina McIntosh

I would say winter is the mark of our end, I too would prefer Autumn. It is a lovely season.

Autumn sheds leaves, signalling release (from egoic fears and desires)
