Birch in silence stand afar
in morning’s misty air
with hues of gray to frame her arms
this mystic autumn fair

Within the brick the fireplace holds
scents cedar that which burned
A softly glow of embers spent
aromas it has spurned

O’ silhouette thy shadow casts
through dawn’s breath of the mist
A walk I take upon the trail
Of once where we had kissed

I sit upon the bench which where
we both sat from the rain
my forest fairy I was called
for nature our domain

Upon my cheek a tear doth fall
just like the morning dew
and close my eyes to feel once more
a kiss from you I pulled

Hold me in your arms once more
and never let me go
for like the brick, which holds the scent
our ember ever glows
