With the backdoor hue turning mist,
The day does lend a true sad wish
The clouds up gather for a final song
Thunders last break! ding n dong!
Nature’s up with beauty it can
Sharing its glow, with the river it ran
Through the tress that shed leaves to dry
Sheds my tears with smile to cry!
Moon above me, glows with tempt and smile
Snowflakes to share from clouds that cry
Lighting up woods with times to pause
Sending up stars, the deers n claus!
Swooping notes now change low
Wind gushing in parts ever known
Casting a smile not known to last
Catching air, till last moments may last!
The rain up now, dares to break
Would nature please to break?
Glooming thoughts grew a waterfall
Praying the skies for a water to fall.
Creepy to lock eyes with night
Still chanting names of nature’s might
Whose stars may shine on graves to last
Whose glow may show the eternal past.
With leaves that shed my tears-to-day
For this leaves the night today
well, it may gather my heart the all
For this moment marks winter’s fall.
