Zephyr's Kiss
Golden soft was the light that swiftly flew,
As whistling rain pelted majestic oaks
And the soaked birds began to cry for you
As Nature silently wrapped up its cloaks
Thirsty for coming dawn, so bold and new.
Silver Maples fluttered in the wind,
Where the fast sleeping rabbits hid away
All beautiful, we wish to never end
With brightened colors, every joyful day
As Nature's beauty flowed out to transcend.
Blazing red the delicate maple stands
Gently kissed by Zephyr's uplifting breeze
As frost comes touching each leaf with cold hands
During night's darkest hour leaves damp to freeze
A deep pain felt by one who understands
Ginko's golden hair full of color fair
Tossed about by the nor'easter force
Weeps to sympathize with Maple's affair
Soon ribbons snatched, hair detached a worse course
Winter blows with ice and cold incomparable
Robert Lindley & Sara Kendrick
