Autumn has better shadows with its
Slanted light and sky-forge sunsets,
Frost-hinting dews washing the
Chill morning meadows.
The sun affirms our compass truths
And we nod sadly to darker days,
Wondering how long summer's
Lingering ribbons will deceive.
Now, under glass-blown blue skies,
As east winds bare fresh fangs,
A rich crumble of bronze-red leaves
Carpets the dying path to winter.
