The Grandeur of Fall


Majestic mornings gleamed from heaven's gate 
the world is yours my friend so seize the day 
When Autumn's soup Terinne of soft agate 
turns Bisqued and fired, do not look away 

Take in the splendor of His Pryrite sun  
and when the till is done take time to pray 
Give Grace the upper hand and never run 
enjoy each day for nothing gold can stay 

Equinox of beauty please say goodnight 
to vernal echoes of your blessed youth   
Help your next of kin share your liquid light 
when shorter days arrive don't be uncouth 

Be as smooth as an Autumn sunset, glow
for life is too short, and you never know.
