As leaves die their earthly death
Crisply taking their final bow,
Dejected in the passing of days
Autumn season makes some people sad,
While light and darkness merge and fuse
Close your eyes and dream awhile,
Small things unseen, silently wait in patient time
Wonder can still be stored to sustain and treasure,
Carrying smiles that warm the heart
Hope still curling among the edges,
Allowing words to keep being spoken
Forces that if we allow, we could all share,
Love's presence still ever so powerful
To drown the wallow of sombre melancholy,
Among us, this magic gently keeps stirring
Letting troubled thoughts to be broken,
Aligning souls, capturing the calm within
Bringing light, as new stars are formed in sky.
