Giving syllabic's another shot.  
9,7,9,7 pattern.

(P.S. When I said "deaf whispering" I was describing the whisper. Not literately someone who's deaf whispering. Hahaha. Just wanted to clear that up. oh and I didn't mean to make the last stanza rhyme. Force of habit.:P )

Autumn Memories


Hear the deaf whispering in the wind?
Leaves singing their melodies
As they dance upon billowing gusts
The autumn air crisp for snow

Silhouetting tree's stand high and proud
As the dark creeps and reaches
It's smothering down the afternoon sun
Evening daylight in its grip

The veil of night covers city streets
Under its fabric; pin hole stars shine
Thread lacing the slender moon up high
While moon casts his silver line

I'm glad you did what you didn't mean to do. *G* The rhyme in the last stanza is beautiful and makes that my favorite verse in a wonderful poem. *S*
