Autumn

when she saunters in
relieving my skin
with winds swishing by
in annual equilibrium

when the trees ignite
in a cacophony of coloration,
releasing before meditation,
the fasting solstice

when the sky shivers
and gets it’s winter coat
thick and cottony
and the moon gloats

when the shine exhausts
and the shadows stir
to blanket nature
while she slumbers

– B. Brown
