The bitter wind blew its coldness around me As I stood outside trying to catch a ray of light The cold breeze rustled through the trees As I watched the autumn leaves fall The swirl of wind caught the leaves As it drifted towards the sky A heavenly touch of sunshine Piercing the bright blue sky Then as I stood to catch my breath Upon the cusps of life I closed my eyes and nodded my head At the beauty of autumn days Then flipping the scarf around my neck Also the collar of my coat I walked back inside to the warmth of home To rest my burdens of the day to bed
