Autumn Equinox

If I could surf on a Cirrus cloud,

Today was the day to set sail.

The grand entrance of Autumn,

Proved to be a colossal fail.

Summer would not relinquish

A day to surrender the sun…

Now we’ll watch daylight diminish,

Hour after hour, one by one.

When winter finally dominates,

And the Robins’ voices still…

Winter unveils the darkness,

As our blankets cover the chill.
