Autumn

A Fall Morning

Oh beautiful morning with birds singing brightly

And tinkling stream, humming so lightly

Blusterous wind whispering secrets to the trees

And making music with a wind chime created out of old keys

The dew on the grass sparkling in the streaming sunlight

And a little robin bird flying out of my eyesight

A few fluffy white clouds against the blue blue sky

And across my path glides a purple dragon fly

The little wispy daisy's opening to embrace the sunshine

And the dew slowly disappearing  from the lacy cobwebs so fine

A few autumn leaves scuttle across my resting feet

And a dull thump resounds as pine cone and ground meet

A wish comes floating through the air, and I catch it with my fingertips

I smile and release it, and away the wish quietly slips

A twilight colored cat steps gracefully into my view

While the lifting fog creates a curious kind of hue

This glorious morning we have to start this day

God you have made it, and "Thank you" is all I can say.
