AUTUMN

Late August winds embrown grassy 
meadows beset with cornflowers; 
crystal blue asterisms imbibe remnants 
of the heavens' Summertide azure.

A translucent cyan veil, freed from 
parching torpor, gently undulates. 
Diaphanous scrolls, eggshell curlicues, 
carom across dreamlike expanses.

Summer's boisterous choristers chant 
placid farewells, unravel mystical 
dispatches borne upon cooled, sapid, 
heather-laden Zephyrs.

Dark honey rays melt into apple cider 
breezes, mottle yesterday's green 
with shades of harvest's ripe bounty. 

Apple, damson, plum, pear, dapple 
fall foliage, twirl in thyme-scented 
vortices, festoon forest floors.

Dahlias dipped in September dawns'
dewy damask gaze into 
mystical expanses, rejoice as they
espy the First Point of Libra 
on the horizon.

Autumn's tune, this bittersweet air of
a misty interim redolent with plenty, 
laces the pale aureate air. 
Pensive melody, ebullient harmony, 
bid man and Nature repose.
