Sandra Haight Poet Acrostic

Notes About The Poem

Fall Deep Into Autumn

Fall, you arrived with renewed hope-
As we have weathered seasons past
Longing for ways by which to cope-  
Lost in that shade- which Covid cast.

Deepen our hopes with clear, crisp air,
Engage our eyes in brighter views-
Erase drab scenes with landscape flare
Painted in gold, red-orange hues.

Induce past pleasures we recall;
Nightly bonfires to warm the clime,
Then lift our spirits with the sprawl
Of orchard treats, come harvest time.

As holidays bring joy between,
Unveiling seasonal displays-
Thanksgiving after Halloween-
Undo our angst from Covid days.
May your uplifting Autumn blaze
Negate our feelings of malaise.
