The amber light of Autumn filters through
From soft and crimson sky rising prior
To kiss the umber leaves that say adieu
And share morning light with my desire
As saffron leaves die in brown attire
I will breathe the chilled Autumn air content
And know the season's change is evident

As ginger colored wings of birds subdue
And they fly south as a signifier
When pumpkin colored skies turn midnight blue
And dawns of cinnamon thread light fire
The splayed morning gray will soon expire 
The chill of Autumn comes as leaves are spent
And Winter winds begin their cold ascent

This is so beautiful, a gorgeous poem to read on this pre-autumn night. It brings me peace, but also an extraordinary sense of anxiety knowing where you are as you wait and are preparing for the strongest storm ever to hit your home state. My honor to read your poem, but my heart and prayers are with those of you. Please keep safe, and let us know when you can how you are. Best of Luck, Frederic and hugs to you and your family.
