faintly in the dawn
wind and winter play,
here and gone.
Threads break, leaves fall,
snow drifts down
covers autumn leaves
silent below
Wind wakes spring buds
sun finds day
rain falls gently
washes snow away
Day breaks, petals fall
silent as the snow
Earth takes the autumn leaves
to the damp below
Summer leaves tremble
faintly in the dawn
sense the waiting autumn
here and gone.
