In honor of Autumn:
October sun filters through
Trees set aflame;
Shivering heat sets the world on fire.
Birds pack their bags -
they’re growing tired
of fighting the northern wind.
Sun shines warm
but the Earth grows cold,
beginning to creak her bare,
wooden bones.
Moon’s eye turns hard with greed
knowing her time has come.
Leaves sing a sad lament
on this bittersweet day;
another brother has fallen,
silently drifting away.
How beautiful Fall is!
