Autumn's Crone holds her own
with eyes of emerald green,
she's walked among fields of corn
lightly stroked each sheaf with love,
contemplated every step with ease,
but atmosphere warns of danger,
pause...hold silence
take your time,
beware of well...
you know what I mean!
Wolves ride waves of cunning ardor
as crows decree Winter's reign,
wheat becomes what it is
then death holds golden key,
magic mingles with stars
there to set us free.
Crone has no wish to die just yet
remembers when breasts
heaved with nectar,
Summer drank her fill,
now old Winter waits
for Spring to learn of
love, life and new
beginnings,
when buds once more
sweep earth,
each creature waking
giving birth.
Soon warmth again returns
Summer visions many,
maiden basks dissolving
into beauty,
till Autumn's soul
is born again.

I keep venturing out for a potter in the garden, but old winter soon chases me back in doors. I think we've got a final siberian blast heading our way. Enjoyed your poem!
