Falls New Mysteries
The days seem shorter,

the nights seem long.

Fall stands in line waiting,

singing a welcome me song.

The line between two seasons

narrows down.

They come to center stage,

their eyes meet.

Their eyes fall to the ground.

Summer twirls into a haze

of puffy blue smoke.

Fall comes to instant life

and dazzles us all.

The seasons have changed.

We are in another time,

another place.

Here we go,

the new season is here.

We are in a spell-bound state.

The beauty of her mysteries

now glows on our face!
