The air is crisp, the wind a whisper

As dusk descends upon the world

The leaves that once danced with the breeze

Are now held dead in a grounded embrace

The clouds above are heavy with greyness

And the sun, hidden far behind them,

Struggles to push its light through

To illuminate the world below

In the fading light, the trees appear

As dark silhouettes against the sky

Their branches reaching out like wicked fingers

A deadly touch for the dying light of day

The sky above us is quiet and still

As we stand in awe of this terrible beauty

That mesmerizes us in this late fall dusk

And bears down the weight of the passing year
