Golden amber red slowly sailing to the ground <br />Nothing heard … just the sound of hope <br />Rustling in the breeze <br />As the branches wave to a greet me to an autumn day <br />The magical rhythm of the season <br /> <br />Breathing in the crisp northern air <br />A hawk glides on the currents high above <br />The will to move... leaves me <br /> I am captured in autumn’s portrait <br />Alone within a masterpiece <br /> <br />A sound comes from the distance <br /> Rustling in the leaves he makes his appearance <br />A full crown graces his head <br />Mighty buck and his harem <br />Slowly clearing the way for his entourage <br /> <br />I dare not move for the beauty has stunned my soul <br />They move with elegance and grace <br />He senses I mean no harm for I am filled with peace <br />My mind clear and my heart filled <br />I sigh and whisper … Thank You for this day<br /><br />Patricia Gale<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-portrait-of-autumn/
