Warm Ground

Sunbeams hang as they are downed 
This fall's Twilight is where I'm found
Here I be with my lengthened shadow
Standing on God’s still warm ground

Through bare branches streams the light
Here I wait with growing fright
What portends is cold n' snow 
Inside winter's approaching night

The sun’s last word has not been said
This eve is not the time I dread
For now the sun is strong with glow
This air is warm, summer's not dead
