Nobel Autumn

Nobel autumn. Rustling winds expose your frame, To cold, damp and dreaded name. Wind scars slash at dying summer, Rain re-echo’s the little drummer. Middle aged gnarled to aching spur, Boorish zephyr chills a dreaded allure. Stooped, naked, shamed to despair, You gather your strength. Send a flare. Of gold, ochre, saffron flames of red, A last stand, against the gelid dread. As Cu Chulainn fought to the bitter end, You flicker gleam my autumn friend. S.de B© 2012.

Hi Jim, sorry in the delay in responding to your kind comment, I have not been on over the past few months, nor have I had the time to write which is a source of frustration for me, (as bad as the stuff I try to call poems, still I enjoy trying). I hope to catch up with all your new works ASAP. Hope you are well.
