What sway does Indian Summer hold
Over the seasons scheduled departure
The meekness of the solstice told
Far less bold than cold or harder
I would have said my goodbyes
By now but still await its invitation 
Coaxing to the ground the canopies
Of  yellow,  red, and brown 
Challenging the summer duration
