Amber Leaves Ascend
Autumn's touch, the skies extend,
Marigold hues, the branches bend.
Breezes cool, the trees suspend,
Every leaf a golden blend.
Ripples dance, as leaves descend,
Light cascades, the colors send.
Echoes of warmth that never end,
As amber leaves ascend.
Vivid glows, a graceful trend,
Each moment, nature’s friend.
Softly falling, they transcend,
Ascending dreams, they recommend.
Seasons change, yet they pretend,
Cycles of time, they do commend.
Earth and sky, a perfect blend,
Nature’s beauty, we defend,
Dreaming as amber leaves ascend.

Infinite space, a clear blue sky.
Morning light, a golden tie,
Endless views where birds still fly.

Soft autumn hues as leaves dry.

Crisp cool days we can’t deny.

Beneath these blues, our spirits rise,
Echoes of joy, no goodbyes.
Rays of sun, a sweet surprise,
Such timeless October skies.

Kisses of sunlight on each face.

Every moment, nature’s lace,
Stretching wide, the skies embrace.

Mellow Harvest Moon
Moonlight soft, a golden tune,
Evenings bathed in autumn's swoon.
Lanterns lit by nature’s boon,

Whispering tales of harvest moon.

Veiled in light, a silver spoon.

Hushed and calm, a perfect seat.

Rustling leaves, the only tone.

Onward through these paths unknown.

Hopes arise along the way,
Such is autumn’s fleeting stay.

In the mist, the world renews.
Shadows dance, the colors fuse,
Trails are hidden, soft and loose.

In this cloak, the magic lies.

Leaves descend as daylight dies.
Softly now, the silence ties.
Onward steps through veils so thin,

Underneath, the fog extends.
Tender moments gently send,
Unseen paths around each bend.
Melodies of autumn mend,
Nature’s gift, a perfect end.

Ushers peace as thoughts are found.

Nothing lost, just moments here.
