~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just before the touch of winter’s caress
Comes a moment when my heart must confess
Peace sways eagerly in the zephyr spice
Tempting autumn brings wonders so precise
Just beyond songs of summer’s gentling kiss
Comes a season when hearts feel such sweet bliss
Autumn shakes with splendor of summer’s end
Gasp of hope rustling light who will transcend
Just beneath the sprinkling of rain’s splatter
Comes a grace who reveals what will matter
Laughing leaves in boldest scarlet and gold
Drift through the gusts who are so quick and bold
Just before shadows fall from ancient light
Comes a calm who erases darkest night
Easy waves of trembling truths will abide
In the fires of hearts the past won’t divide
Just beyond the wonders of autumn’s praise
Comes freedom so pleasing it shall amaze
Spilling joy through the soul who just believes
Autumn’s prodigy breaths love through the leaves
Just beneath the intrigue of this season
Comes a feeling that gives time its reason
Twirling to the music of faith and grace
Leaves reveal the flow of light who’ll embrace
Just past summer, before winter arrives
Comes repose from the season who survives
Every doubt, each fear and even life’s groans
Lovely autumn holds peace in softest tones
