Autumn Begins


Can death be this flamboyant?
Can a finale, this bold?
Does age not pale,
and wither the old?

With brazen audacity
they face winter's cold,
rubies sparkle on garnet vines
ambers fleck with gold.

I smile at such promise,
for fruition of life's manifold;
it is not yet my time, to glimpse
truth or eternity behold.
