for all the folks who don't have an autumn...


Pull them from my hair,
the rusty bits,
saffron yellow,
scarlett pieces
of summer's glory
caught in the strands
you released with a practiced hand,
just before you tumbled me
into the sweet bed of autumn,
and now the mist
is chasing us back
to a spare cabin
graced by a wide hearth,
and nothing on earth
but we two,
and the sweet taste of hot cider
warm from your lips...
