Earthly green to feverish red
autumn
i’ve missed your cold warmth
brown, to red, to a faded auburn
you’re my autumn leaf
i still admire you from a safe distance
These strange autumnal rains
make old wounds feel new with pain
The nights are long and dark
Mornings far away
Voices pitched and stark
The skies are low and grey
I write you when you fall
no chill like autumn's air
to brace my  soul.
