Autumn Dreams - Tracy R.Cardinet©2017 CAL USA
Secret dreams of Autumn
Sacred and surreal
Celebrate the moment
Of how it’s going to feel
When the summer sunshine
Recedes the heat, at dusk
Leaving crisp, cool evenings
Upon my skin, to touch
When the apples ripen
And the pumpkins too
I will find delight in
Harvest foods and moon
It may try to linger
That summer, with its heat
I will wag my finger
Put shoes upon my feet
Barefoot is no good for
Autumn’s morning chill
As the warblers lessen
‘Round my window sill
Autumn fairies call me
With their leafy crunch
Autumn soon will waken
I just have a hunch
