autumn breath


The Autumn of a breath
Natures grandeur
Radiant light, spliced
Captured
In living colors

sensual splendor
Culminating in soft, rustling richness


Refreshing breath …
Glory captured in each leaf
Help me, find me...
That still, soft,
peace…

Breezes cooling,
Nights grow crisper;
Make me long
In ache and whisper

Breath on me,
In golden hues
Kissed by tangerine,
Rust , and crimson

Enrapture me;
In falling display
Draw me close,
encompass me.

Sweet coolness
wafting over
glistening skin
Teasing and taunting
senses…
Lifting a weary spirit

In the promise of
One last, stunning
Shimmering gasp…

……Breathe….
