Autumn's song

Sunshine plays in leaves,

the moon trapped in a tree;

clouds born of drops of dew

and Fall breeze set free.

Youthful days die quick,

peaceful nights are long;

brown sky kisses ground:

it's time for Autumn's song.

Stars, in windows, twinkle,

giants' shadows loom;

time dances dark ballet

and nightly flowers bloom.

Opus noir fades,

a symphony awakes;

softly taking centre stage,

a velvet dawn breaks.
