Autumn is here

Autumn is here, and I celebrate

the quietness it brings.

Spring is the sprighty gait

of my boys, as they run effortlessly

while I walk, a little slower, perhaps?

it's time to sit back and savour

every moment, before the leaves are gone.

What I see is the love and the pain

I see etched in fallen leaves.

Brilliant hued, they flaunt their veins,

their color with pride.
