Deep chilling
profound

First frost of winter
thrust
it's cold tentacles
upon all
that was loveliest
of summers last blossoms,
and Fall's splendor.

Reprieve!!

Indian Summer arrives
on warm winds
and sun speckled dew.

She dances a waltz
of timeless melody,
calling memories
of Summers rhapsody
and promise of Springs song.

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

A lovely tribute to Indian summer, which we are enjoying here, where I live, right now!
