In mid-September

The crisp air kisses my check

With autumn's love song

The cold brings desire

A slow light to the fire's burn

A passion ignites

Leaves fall from the trees

And yet - below the surface

The earth still nurtures

Life begins again

During the rains of springtime

Before summer's song
