Autumnal Visions

arrival of the penultimate season...

falling toward the end of the year
    cool breezes purge the sultry sloth
amber/auburn/crimson leaves dance in the wind
    fall foliage signals the end of a cycle
contracting days declare enveloping emptiness
    expanding awareness of our infinite finitude

...a symphony of poignant silence
