A poem that I wrote, it is the opening to my book "Beyond the Misty Mountains".
When you lose someone that you were close to
And you’re sure that they’re not coming back
The Gold Leaves of Autumn will always
Be there for you

When the world has it’s promise and color
And descends to stony monotone
The warmth of the Gold Leaves of Autumn
Will cling to the bones

And When The Wind Blows
And time marches on
It feels so unfair
And it feels they don’t care

And while the world turns
And you cannot hold on
I will be there
In Heart, Mind, and Soul
With You

When the world seems to turn against you
And you back is against a broken wall
The Gold Leaves of Autumn will be there
To catch your fall

When you seem like a prisoner to evil
And you’re chained up here right next to me
Our Gold Leaves of Autumn will rescue
For they have the key

And When The Wind Blows
And time marches on
It feels so unfair
And it feels they don’t care

And while the world turns
And you cannot hold on
I will be there
In Heart, Mind, and Soul
With You
