Autumn's Arrival
Emerald leaves, tall-standing trees
Colourfully, a canopy transforms and unveils
Burnt, bold oranges, rich crimsons, and butternut golds
Like jewels, they radiate in the September sun
Mother Nature gently guides, the leaves obediently perform and persevere
The dark hues of their wounded state prepare to succumb
I too, need to release the darkness of my wounded heart
May the change of seasons remind me that like the leaves, there is a time to glimmer
And a time to let go
