Quicksilver Air

As is the warbling gait of August usually
With those sour dough winds on quicksilver air
The time has come to catch a cricket match
In morning cool, Autumn twirls my hair

Reminds me of the smell of sunshine
Strung across the yard like notes of a song
The time has come to catch a cricket match
In morning cool, and pipe curls long

Distinguished are the fowl and fawn
Beaten feathers dusted fair
As is the warbling gait of August usually
With those sour dough winds on quicksilver air

I can visualize this.
The air is unpredictable for sure; swirling around one moment, almost calm another.
Terrific write This Diamond...

Such a calming poem, an end of season view of the inevitable change to come..

This poem ''reads'' very well too, a sure sign it is one to savour, thank you for your words...
