AUTUMN 'LAMENT'
The wind caressed autumn trees
Freeing leaves to sail on air
And sing laments to summers passing.
There was a chill that whispered of changes
Of darkness enshrouding the land
And birds migrating to a warmer clime.
In our hearts a sweet melancholy settled
A calmness and a peaceful feeling of nearness
Of drawing together after the golden days
To share a beauty that the passing year brings.
We grew mild that morning sitting by the lake
The sun rising from the mist on the water.
At evening we caught the twilight hour
When all is hushed by the amber sky
And in silence we sensed something deeper
A glimpse into a world untouched by time.
