Leaves ready to fall <br />...........................now redden and blush. <br />Demur in change, <br />.....................they know October's here. <br />Windblown they tremble <br />............................ yet shed without rush. <br />We, dear friend, <br />................. feel our autumness nearing. <br /> <br />Heated by summer, <br />......................love no more emboldens <br />Like sad paling leaves <br />................................ our verses run dry. <br />Coats of lonliness <br />...........................loosen each frail hold. <br />Bur we penned glorious hues, <br />.............................................. you and I.<br /><br />Fay Slimm<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/our-octobering/
