Gradually(Pantoum)
As autumn gently makes its way
there is a feel, a certain scent
as leaves gently fall from the trees
burnt orange and yellows
there is a feel, a certain scent
the nights are longer, the air has a chill
burnt orange and yellows
cover the earthen walkways
the nights are longer, the air has a chill
as leaves fall from the trees
the flowers have long faded, even the crickets quieter
summer now but a distant memory
