messangers of fire
have made a fiery show
they are now extinguished
'neath a blanketing of snow
Vermont and New York's upstate
have seen these leaves like brass
the maples and the mulberry

their colors/like molten goldenrod
making manifest/the mighty power of God
now the fragile snowflake/replaced the
glowing pyre/gone are all the showy floes
the messangers of fire
