In Autumn

Night’s shadows fall more quickly now,
and birds will soon forsake their bough.
A melancholy has begun,
for summering has come undone.

As autumn winds begin to blow,
and in the shadows – sun hangs low -
behold what wonder shall unfold
in orange, crimson, rust and gold.

Yes, colors burst from every tree,
and in this beauty I can see
a potpourri of imagery -
the harvesting of poetry!
