Autumn

when summer fades,
nature plays a wistful song,
for soon, autumn will whisper
soft and slow, wearing a cloak
of red, amber, yellow

and I'll remember tales from
long ago, on nights wider
in gentle rain, with scent of cider
and fields of grain, harvest moon,
and falling leaves with their tune

a palette of colors they'd blend
for my broken heart to mend
