Autumnal fire , vibrance a-blaze
Infusions bright , command our gaze
Inflamed desire , for longer days

At dawns first light , through star-lit maze
Our sky-bound choir , wafts from the haze
Autumnal fire , vibrance a-blaze

Heights to aspire , fewer our stays
never to tire , o'er fields of maize
Inflamed desire , for longer days

Higher , higher , determined ways
O'er ville and shire , o'er bogs and brays
Autumnal fire , vibrance a-blaze

Some will expire , broken as clays
Yet still we choir , our voices raised
Inflamed desire , for longer days

Azure , sapphire , sun's slanted rays
To raise our choir , we must obey
Autumnal fire , vibrance a-blaze
Inflamed desire , for longer days

Great work Doc

Dr.Moose1,
You did very well, the villanelle form has stomped many a good poet. Well done.
