Autumn’s glory shines
maples flame and birch blaze
melting into gold
Raindrops fall with tears
windshield wipers ticking time
sorrow’s misty fog
Precious Autumn flies
away to heaven’s blest blue
singing with angels
Sweet life is brief as
burning leaves and turning seasons
ashes to ashes.
(In honor of Autumn Elgersma, age 3, of Orange City who
left this world bereft on October 31, 2013)
