Autumn she waits

Autumn she waits

The summer haze sprinkled drops of sunshine; that freckled beyond leafy filters

She bursts her glory like scattered rice on wedding day,

She cracked sides of puddles and ponds; and wilts green out of reach

As they lay awaiting for resurrection, on a muddy hard beach.
---

Sunset scattered clouds like cotton balls torn into a blaze; un-ignited.

As they blend a watercolour sunset, the sky sinks into slumber

Planning another glorious day; keeping autumn away.
---

But autumn waits with her pallet, she it prettier and always stole my heart

She threw her kisses down, from leafy filters now laid bare

She made Virginia blush into the garden wall

Now she’s here and summer knows her fait

My autumn lover, she no longer waits.
