Listen to poem:

Autumn Falling

Autumn Falling
David J Walker

It was the Chambermaid
	Who smoothed the sheets
And swept the floors
	Of the summerhouse 

And checked the windows and
Locked the doors 

	For another season
A warmer blouse 

As Autumn entered  
With purpose and reason 

Colors morphing 
The artesian song 

Singing of 
The freezing 
Rains to come

As light gives way
To the longer
	        Colder day
Falling into the Night
