Autumn
MG/JL • ©copyright 1998

The season's chill warms my memory
Warm, so warm; I feel no cold
Not who, not what, nor when; but how
I feel the dreams of years of old

From death comes life
With rain the sun
With time comes peace
When the summer is done.

I know my springtime in autumn
The cool grays illuminate me
Not a time for dying, but remembering
Of a time that used to be
