Breathe deeply the aura of Autumn<\/p>\n
The gentle touch of amber breath<\/p>\n
The rain approaches on the western crests<\/p>\n
Topped with white coming of the winter chill<\/p>\n
As with dreams, the breathe of air is silent<\/p>\n
As with sleep, the winter slowly approaches<\/p>\n
To take a silent sweep of the autumn leaves.<\/p>\n
As I am standing here, buffeted by wind<\/p>\n
The whispering talk of boughs and limbs<\/p>\n
Swaying up their children to the taking wind<\/p>\n
An offering of self, an offering of seasons<\/p>\n
A gift to the soil of the coming year.<\/p>\n
Filled I am with the sun of the Lord<\/p>\n
The touch of his praises unyielding<\/p>\n
And the smell of God on the wind<\/p>\n
Peeking over the hills distant and purple<\/p>\n
Mountain majesties inviting me to come<\/p>\n
Come to us, take our beauty<\/p>\n
Take our scents, take our tastes<\/p>\n
Take with you what you can,<\/p>\n
For we are to be gone on the following<\/p>\n
Breathe of the northern wind.<\/p>\n
We breathe our last offering breath<\/p>\n
And let ourselves sleep<\/p>\n
For our green cousins will keep watch<\/p>\n
Keep watch over us<\/p>\n
As we sleep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
