Autumn
Autumn, a transient season
Fluttering leaves drift aflutter
In scarlet and xanthic flashes
Cooling zephyrs color branches
Fallen leave stutter
As lashings of a silken tapestry
Golden kernels, like glistening chatoyants
Goldenrod stalks that seep to rushes
Aromas of fresh cakes and warm croissants
Filling with butter and heavy lushness
The glittering navy lakes
across thanksgiving escapes
Falling leaves, scraps of glitter
Fall on the shrine's pond, with a shimmer
as the conclusion of the heat arises
amass the joyous crowds
The gelid frost may act as vices
but remember the warmth, all its thorough niceness
We gather petioles, weave our wreaths
commemorate this lovely morn
The fluttering sunlight, a sword unsheathed
We welcome autumn, once more
