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
