Autumn Is Near

Trails of rain fade at the fringe of summer,
supple northern breeze whispers on its way.
Strands of silver clouds slowly sail away, 
graze the ash of end-summer’s smoky sky. 
Sunburst horizon spreads gossamer drape, 
tepid spectrum emits from slant sunrays. 
Birds bathe in their shadows in fawn meadow,
autumn is near, they twitter, looking far.
Satin grass will wear crown of topaz dew, 
flicker with the flair of dawn’s crystal glow. 
In cinnabar lawn tawny trees listen
in the crunch of bronze leaves autumn’s footfall.
