Autumn's Palette...

Autumn's Palette...

Soft charcoal and wind,
Atop a fire-limned ocean,
Swirling bird clouds dancing,
Spider webs and bursting milkweed,
Cattail seeds tufting on the wind,
The world is damp and at the fringes of life,
Ghosts haunt the fields and hollows,
Bygone Summer days withering away.

Everything dies in color,
Except only the sky,
Awash in endless varietals of grey,
Another year dancing to Autumn's Palette.
