He hums as we walk ere so closely
our hands with our fingers both laced
a path we both just loved to follow
for time we did naught wish to waste

The air it was crisp, cool and lovely
autumns breath around every bend
colored leaves strewn about in their splendor
with many a more to descend

Out to the fields now art umber
lined with the soldiers of trees
beckons us both to come closer
for wisdom they wish us to see

Pale mist it doth form on horizon
smells of the sweet dewy air
glitters afore us like diamonds
two lovers embracing with care

Remember the leaves of our Autumn
Your aura the loveliest most seen
a color naught touched by dear autumn
our colors most wish they could dream
